Slayer: Show No Mercy CLR | LTD versie op vinyl LP in gekleurde limited remastered editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Wereldwijd bij uitgeverij Metal Blade Records op 16. februari 2024.

"Show No Mercy" je debutové album thrashmetalové kapely z Huntington Parku v Kalifornii.

Skupina Slayer, která vznikla v roce 1981, vtrhla do světa s novou směsí metalu a punku - tvrdší, rychlejší a temnější než kdokoli jiný - a stanovila nový standard, který definoval nejen žánr, ale také postoj. Po celou dobu existence Slayer nepřestali rozpoutávat extrémní a soustředěný zvukový útok a navzdory všem pokušením se Slayer vždy rozhodli zůstat drsní a brutální a vytrvale odmítali přizpůsobit se mainstreamu.

Album valt binnen het genre Rock en Thrash Metaal.
