9.4 		Where should I start? This is the first EP that I ever bought and I can surely say that it was worth the $10 that I paid for it. The cover art isn't very unique at all by Slayer standards, but I do love the logo in white and red. It has a really evil look.

The production is amazing. The bass is more audible than in Show No Mercy and it gives the album more of a thick sound. I don't understand why this production wasn't used on Hell Awaits, and I can only dream of what Show No Mercy would have sounded like with such production.

One of the greatest EPs ever. Slayer was at the top in their early years.

Everything on this one kills. Though I am apparently not aware of the bonus as I now figure...

When I compare the Show No Mercy cover art with this cover art, I have to think of that Star Wars prequel meme...

I thought the two primary purposes for the internet were cat memes and overreactions.
