Slayeris an American thrash metalband, founded in Huntington Park, California in 1981 by Tom Araya(bass guitar, vocals), Kerry King(guitars), Jeff Hanneman(guitars) and Dave Lombardo(drums). Lombardo had left the band to explore varied drumming styles, notably his work in Mike Patton's Fantmas. He was replaced by Paul Bostaph, but has now returned to the drum stool. Hanneman and King are the group's main songwriters. Slayer (along with Metallica, Anthrax, Megadethand others) are often credited with creating American thrash metal by speeding up the sound of New Wave of British Heavy Metal bands like Iron Maiden, Judas Priestand Venom.

Criminally Insane Lyrics
Slayer
(lyrics & music - hanneman & king)
Night will come and I will follow
For my victims, no tomorrow
Make it fast, your time of sorrow
On his trail, Ill make you follow
Quarters for the criminally insane
The sentence read for life I must remain
The path I chose has led me to my grave
To try again Id have no other way
Quarters for the criminally insane
Escape for me has fast become a game
Soon to be, Ill leave without a trace
Endangered species end the human race
(lead: hanneman, king)
Branded in pain
Marked criminally insane
Locked away and kept restrained
Disapprobation, but what have I done
I have yet only just begun
To take your fuckin lives!
[night will come and I will follow
For my victims, no tomorrow
Make it fast, your time of sorrow
On his trail, Ill make you follow]
