Elmofongo: I never heard music in Vynil form, everyone keeps that Vynil sounds better almost like you are hearing the band themselves in your room rather than a recording.
Also Show No Mercy still has not gave Slayer their Slayer sound. Hell Awaits was the first album to give the Slayer sound, and imo its their best classic album ever, better than Reign in Blood.
Yes they didn't get their sound until later, but Die By the Sword and Black Magic are still great...not to mention a few of the other tracks on the Album.
Vinyl many say sounds better, but you still have to put up with the pops, clicks and other random noise from the record. Not to mention the space requirements, fragility and lack of backup you have with the medium. It's funny that you don't have the same fight for the 8-Track or Cassette Tape. I remember the change from Cassette to CD...I knew I was never going back to Cassette Tape and threw every one I had away. Only a 25-40 tape collection, but still very satisfying.
