Slaughter in the Vatican is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Exhorder, released on October 23, 1990 through Roadrunner Records.[1] It was reissued by Roadrunner in 2003 in a double-disc package with the band's follow-up album The Law and reissued again in 2008.
The album saw the band compared with Pantera, with AllMusic commenting on the album's "death metal-style double kick drums, chugging guitar riffs played at both slow and blistering tempos, and, to top it all off, the gruff but very expressive lead vocals of frontman Kyle Thomas".[1] On May 25, 2018, Slaughter in the Vatican was inducted into the Decibel Magazine Hall of Fame.[4]
