bostaph recorded four albums with slayer; his least favorite is 1994's "divine intervention". this is due to the guitars not being loud enough as they were in the recording session, the band moving around to several recording studios, and a producer who had never done any heavy metal music. the producer changed near the end of recording to toby wright – bostaph stating "that record never had any consistency to it although a lot of fans still like it." bostaph left the band in 1996 to concentrate on his solo project, truth about seafood, and was replaced by jon dette; however, he returned in 1997. his second favorite album is 2001's "god hates us all"; "the whole era that i was with the band that was the album that was the most well-rounded and mixed the best" with "diabolus in musica".
