One of Slayer’s most popular songs, ‘Raining Blood’ is almost too intense to describe in words, let alone listen to at anything approaching high volume. The song’s best-known riff is the descending line that begins the song, but the mesmerizingly brutal riff that precedes the vocals is also an all-time classic. The added thunderstorm effects make this an astounding composition.
