“And in THIS corner…”

 Already knowing (going in) that our 1988 HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH was gonna be “bigger than China”, the Bunkerpoon oversight committee made the executive decision to break this “hog” of an episode into a two-part cliffhanger dangler.

At this point, we’ve covered side 1 and now we’re tackling side 2 of Metallica’s AND JUSTICE FOR ALL and Slayer’s SOUTH OF HEAVEN. And let’s just say that since “the upstairs and downstairs no longer match” you’re gonna wanna “get you some popcorn” and brace yourselves for multiple “hockey soccer” moments because this one was a bloodbath to the end.

 

It’s time to reconvene in the Bunkerpoon with “Mr. Black, Mr. Dice, and Mr. Shave” as we discuss the first “frontman drummer” in metal as well as which song “should have been track 11 on Reign In Blood”. Behold “the end of Metallica thrash and the most doomy Slayer song ever” and get a “sneak peek” of what our NEXT Death Match is gonna be when you JOIN US for PART 2 of our 1988 HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH between METALLICA’s …And Justice For All and SLAYER’s South of Heaven.
