    Probably mentioned before, but Seasons.. and Reign in Blood are the ones to start with. Maybe South of Heaven too, but it has weird production for my taste. And yeah, Reign in Blood is too concentrated on speed most of the time - here's my heretic view: it has awesome, classic tunes at both ends with silly fast and kinda forgettable tunes in between.

    I've been sharing that one at work. It works too well for comfort.

    I like this thread. Go for the better live recordings from their early years. Their albums lack the energy they bring to the stage.
