In the late eighties this band's album contained stickers which proudly
boasted "featuring brothers of
Slayer's
Tom Araya and Jeff Hanneman".
In reality this was only half true -- yes, bassist Johnny Araya is Tom's
brother, but the other guy (Joey "Hanneman") in fact was no relation to
Jeff, as his real name was Joey Fuchs, and presumably went with the
Hanneman name just as a gimmick.
In any case, the album in question,
Death By A Clothes Hanger, did bear
a vague resemblance to early Slayer -- thrash, yes,
but this was more of a messy, punky brand of thrash, verging on crossover.
They broke up some time after that album, with several of the members
reuniting around 2004 (though neither of the two
aforementioned guys were involved), though little has been heard from
them since.
