A lot of the problem is a source of money attracts opportunists and unless the people who are in charge of the money are savvy to that fact, the number of leaches grows. It's much like the boom towns in the old west. If gold was found everyone came in. A few miners would do well but most never made any money. The money was made in supplying the miners with the equipment they needed, or selling them booze, taking their money in gambling operations, or selling them a fuck. Stores, saloons, and whore houses popped up. As time goes on the carpetbaggers and lawyers come in if the town hasn't dried up. The longer the wealth is in one area the more complicated the shady mess becomes. That's why Washington DC is what it is today. One big piggy feeding trough. The entertainment industry has it's vultures ready to take advantage of the next highly paid star. That pet psychiatrist that charges $6,000/hr is just waiting for the next $20 million per picture pet lover to come to town.

One of the very best heavy bands that has ever existed - they really better than this.
Without Lombardo (or Hanneman) I can't imagine that the new record will be great. 'World Painted Blood' was patchy, and I'd hate them to put out something at half strength, because Slayer is one band where it has to be full tilt.
Still, this 'reunion' gave us 'Christ Illusion', one of Slayer's very best records..........The Power Of The Riff Compels MeComment
