Live Undead
''Live Undead'' is the first live album by American thrash metal band Slayer. It was released through Metal Blade Records and recorded in New York City in front of a room of people. It has been questioned by both critics and authors that the audience sound may or may not be faked. However, in 1984, WBAB Fingers Metal Shop, a radio station, held a contest to meet and hang out with Slayer during a live recording. The album was recorded at Tiki Recording Studios in Glen Cove, NY in front of around a dozen people. The album was originally intended to be recorded in front of a live audience, but things went wrong. Nevertheless, when asked if they were fake, producer Bill Metoyer said, "I don't know if I should tell you."〔 The album begins with an extended introduction of "Black Magic", followed by a small speech. The remaining tracks include both those of 1983's ''Show No Mercy'' and 1984's ''Haunting the Chapel''. Ned Raggett of AllMusic gave the album two and a half out of five stars, and noted that it "isn't really necessary except for the hardest of hardcore fans.〔
==Conception==
The seven-track live record was recorded in front of a room full of people in New York City in the autumn of 1984. It has been rumored that the crowd noise was added in a studio rather than recorded on stage. Joel McIver, author of ''The Bloody Reign of Slayer'', asked ''Live Undead'' producer/engineer Bill Metoyer, who had worked on the album in Los Angeles.〔〔McIver 2010, p. 45〕 Metoyer responded: "I don't know if I should tell you (the crowd noises were faked )! Isn't that one of those great industry secrets? Let's just say that when you're doing a live record, you want live sound — even if perhaps the microphones didn't pick up the audience properly."〔
''Live Undead'' marked the beginning of a short association between Slayer and artist Albert Cueller. Cueller would design the sleeve image, which depicts the four band members as grinning, partially decayed zombies walking through a graveyard.〔
