    Christ Illusion is littered with nu-metal gayness. Tom's voice is crap, the lyrics are childish, and every song has some nu-metal sounding crap . There are 2-3 decent tracks. Jihad starts off with something you'd expect from Blink 182 - so that song is crap. Yeah, the song speeds up, but I cant look past that horrid beginning. Sure, all the trendwhores will love this album, but Christ Illusion is littered with nu-metal gayness. Tom's voice is crap, the lyrics are childish, and every song has some nu-metal sounding crap .

    [Drummer Dave Lombardo's] return hasn't complicated Slayer's brutal, single-minded aesthetic, but it has stoked the hellfire that merely sputtered on God Hates Us All. [Sep 2006, p.97]

    An anti-Christian/anti-Islam/anti-Theocratic, anti-war album, Christ Illusion is essential for anyone interested in the genre.

    They're not exactly shaking up their own heavy-duty formula, but with the hell-and-handbasket thing going strong, what difference does it make to them?
