Jeff Hanneman (born August 19, 1964 in Oakland, California USA) is best known as a guitarist of the thrash metal band Slayer and as the primary author of Slayer's classic song Angel of Death: arguably one of the most famous thrash metal songs in existence.
Hanneman has long had an interest in Nazi Germany and Nazi war medals. Many people have unfortunately taken this to be evidence that Hanneman as well as the rest of Slayer are Nazis. The song, Angel of Death is based on Josef Mengele, the Nazi doctor who committed horrifying and often pointless experiments on prisoners of the concentration camps in Auschwitz.
Contrary to popular belief, Joey Fuchs from the ill-fated american band Bloodcum (featuring John Araya) is not Hanneman's brother (see and ). Hanneman and Fuchs were joking when they claimed to be brothers.
