Reign in Blood
The band recorded and produced Reign in Blood at Hit City West (a music studio) in Los Angeles. Rubin produced the album with the band. It was the first time Rubin produced a thrash metal album. Because of this, he made the album sound different from the band's first two albums. A music critic from AllMusic thought that Rubin's work made the songs on the album faster. He also made the music on Reign in Blood sound better than the music on Show No Mercy and Hell Awaits. Because of this, Slayer's music sounded different, and more people listened to it.
