{"product_id":"divine-intervention-2","title":"Divine Intervention","description":"Slayer: Tom Araya (vocals, bass); Kerry King, Jeff Hanneman (guitar); Paul Bostaph (drums).\u003cbr\u003eRecorded at Oceanway, Los Angeles, California and Sound City, Van Nuys, California.\u003cbr\u003eWhat can you say about a band that can find, to quote one song title, \"Serenity In Murder?\" And that can write a poetic, detailed observation on the subject?\u003cbr\u003eNothing that scores of critics haven't said about this shocking heavy-metal band for years, except that they're quite good at it. While their ultraviolent songs are figments of their overactive imaginations, the rage they give voice to isn't; things just may be going down the tubes. The first-person descriptions of rape (\"Sex, Murder, Art\") and necrophilia (\"213\") on DIVINE INTERVENTION are merely a leap of the imagination from the album's third-person attacks on war criminals (\"SS-3\"). Think of it as a character study of a man watching society crumble and crumbling along with it.\u003cbr\u003eSlayer's superfast, supertight metal, propelled by Paul Bostaph's machine-gun drumming, bottles that crumbling psyche into music that's almost as dangerous as the words are alleged to be. The speed-of-light vocal on \"Dittohead,\" an indictment of the justice system, is sprayed out like lead from an automatic weapon. \"Serenity In Murder\" slows the singing down over a still-fast beat, creating a psychedelic thrash feel for a song that wallows in the deluded spirituality of a psychotic's act. In the title song, he meets his maker, who may just be the devil. \"Who am I to judge thy grace?\" he asks. And who are you to judge theirs?","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50827579293983,"sku":"731458680024","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/3ec9920c14f21431a26982ee95813349.jpg?v=1777938392","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/divine-intervention-2","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
