Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Jake Average	#1 by Jake Bounds at Jul 25, 1976 at 3:25 AM EST
	The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, does seem to fit. No Emotion Death Is All I See is that a want or need for flesh? Leatherface needed it. Is it the same in the song?

No Picture Simon (Si) Lead Player	#2 by Simon (Si) Brown at Nov 10, 1980 at 5:51 AM EST
	The texas chainsaw massacre is bassed on the life of ed gein, so it could be about that, dead skin mask is also about ed gein... but i just think its about blood and gore

No Picture Kyle Wanna Be	#3 by Kyle Kom at Dec 3, 1997 at 3:10 AM EST
	great song! one of my favourites. i think its about cannibalism or as the person above me said.. just blood and gore

No Picture nate Average	#4 by nate eastman at Apr 18, 2001 at 5:18 AM EST
	Could be like the life of Ed Gein, metaphorically speaking. But could be reading too deep into the lyrics. Slayer likes to get to the point, rather than divert attention with minimalistic side-stories.
