If you happen to see The Abyss
mentioned in a magazine or a major internet site, please tell me about it - I'd be most grateful! |
|
(The biggest Swedish metal magazine)
| In the section "Svart på vitt" ("Black on white"), Åsa
Swanö listed The Abyss as "www.slaytanic.com (Slayer-site. Everything
you need.)". Thanks, Åsa! |

Metal Hammer, Dec 1997 & April 1998
The Abyss was listed in Metal Hammer's "Internet Zone" column in the
December 1997 and April 1998 issues. |
| In German: "Außerdem stolperten wir
über die 'complete unofficial Slayer fan site' (http://www.slaytanic.com/)
die wir ebenfalls für sehr sehenswert halten. Hier kann man sich ne ganze Weile aufhalten
und wird mit Infos ohne ende versorgt." In English:
"Additionally, we stumbled over the 'complete unofficial Slayer fan site' (http://www.slaytanic.com/)
which we also consider very worth seeing. Here you can stop for quite a while and supply
yourself with endless amounts of information." |

The Abyss was featured in issue 666 (Sept. 20, 1997) of the
British metal magazine "Kerrang!". In the article "Highway to Hell"
("Internet evil - a users guide"), they reviewed a number of
"satanic" (What? Me satanic? :) web sites. They also included a
screenshot of the bottom of the front page of the site (don't ask me why!). Here
is the review, word by word:
THE ABYSS
Where is it: www.slaytanic.com
What is it: An unofficial Slayer website which skins the official one
alive.
What's on it:
- The biggest Slayer discography on the 'Net
- Exclusive band photos
- An extensive selection of lyrics
- Up-to-date news bulletins
The best bit: The audio clip of Slayer's cover of Venom's classic
'Witching Hour'.
The worst bit: Reading the section containing the questions the band have
been most frequently asked by fans is as much fun as disembowelling yourself with a spoon. |
