Media type: CD

SLAYER paid homage to their musical heroes in June 1996 with the issue of the 'Undisputed Attitude' (originally titled 'Selected And Exhumed') album made up of favourite punk tunes and three SLAYER original compositions including the more metal orientated 'Gemini' and 'D.D.A.M.M.' Songs covered included those by T.S.O.L., IGGY POP, notably switching an original lyric of "I Wanna Be Your Dog" to "I'm Gonna Be Your God", DOCTOR KNOW, England's G.B.H., and no less than three MINOR THREAT tracks. The Japanese version added SUICIDAL TENDENCIES 'Memories Of Tomorrow'. The event was marred for the band though when after recording Bostaph made his exit to concentrate on a jazz career. A drummerless SLAYER were forced to cancel South American and European tours.

While SLAYER were offering tribute to their mentors a series of Swedish compilation albums entitled 'Slaytanic Slaughter' were released where Scandinavian acts covered their favourite SLAYER song.

SLAYER resumed activity with the addition of erstwhile TESTAMENT drummer John Dette, however his tenure was fleeting as Bostoph was duly reinstated, Dette returning to the TESTAMENT camp. In his time away from the band Bostoph had formed THE TRUTH ABOUT SEAFOOD.
