Jeff Hanneman wrote probably the most well-known
thrash song ever. It was Angel Of Death.
It shouldn't be necessary to say, from where
he got the inspiration to that song.
Many know, that Jeff for a long time, had intrest
in nazi- Germany and german/nazi medals.
Because of that, Jeff and the rest of Slayer,
has been accused for being nazists by a bunch of assholes.
However, Jeff once collected german medals. He
doesn't have a huge collection, but pretty big.
It started out that way, that Jeff's father (who
fought in the Normandy in '44) asked Jeff if he wanted a medal.
Jeff accepted and eventually he asked if he could
have another one.
He then began to buy medals from different dealers,
and he soon learned to discover the fake
medals from the real ones. I think he stopped
collecting, because he said that it was too expensive.
Jeff also has a brother, his name is Joey. With
Toms brother, John, they started the band Bloodcum but nothing happened
with that band, so they're dead and gone by now.
Their record was named "Death by Clothes Hanger"
and it was a piece of shit.
Hanneman itself sounds very German, and I don't know if he has or had some family or whatever, in Germany. He also looks very Scandinavian-like, blond hair, blue eyes and tall.
Like the rest of the guys, he also jokes and laughs alot.
Like Tom and Kerry, Jeff is very interested in
Ice Hockey and often wears a hockey shirt.
He lives, like Tom, out in nowhere, to be away
from the hectic life, they normally have.
As far as I know, he hates basketball. He likes
drinking beer (Heineken) (Who doesn't ??).
He also likes staying healthy and work on his
tan.
