Slayer - Final N. American Dates Announced


As promised, Slayer have announced their final North American shows and a menacing line-up to accompany them. After making some of the most brutal, aggressive music ever created, being one of the four bands that defined an entire musical genre and after nearly 37 years, releasing 12 studio albums, multiple live recordings, compilations, live video and two box sets, playing nearly 3000 concerts in all corners of the world, receiving countless awards including five Grammy nominations and two Grammy awards, Gold records and other accolades, having its own exhibit in the Smithsonian Institute, gracing hundreds of magazine covers, experiencing the devastating loss of a founding brother, and even appearing on "The Tonight Show," the age of Slayer, one of the greatest thrash metal bands ever, is coming to an end. Slayer announces that it will do one last concert tour around the globe to thank their fans for all of their support over the years, for making the last three-and-a-half decades so packed with good times and unforgettable experiences, and will then move on.

Lamb Of God, Anthrax, Behemoth and Testament will support Slayer on the first leg, North America, of its final world tour. Tickets go on sale to the public this Friday, January 26th at 10AM local time. Very limited Slayer onstage + meet & greet+ exclusive merchandise packages will be available.

Too bad they're quitting, they're still young enough to make good music and good shows. Oh well, it's their right to do something different if they want to...

Sad day when an all time legend calls it quits. Their last album was pretty good too. They can still do it. I saw them live a few years ago and they were excellent. I plan to go to Mohegan to see them and what a fucking awesome bill they have. Anthrax, Testament, Lamb of God and Behemoth. This will be an epic tour for sure. I bet they bring the house down.
