Slayer - Reveal New Album Cover Artwork
Thrashers Slayer just revealed the cover that will grace their new album Repentless. But there is more! The legendary band also announced that the album's title and first official track will be available digitally virtually everywhere around the globe this Friday, June 19th. Check out below the cover artwork created by Brazilian artist Marcelo Vasco in collaboration with the band's bassist/singer Tom Araya and guitarist Kerry King. Get ready for new music from Slayer soon.
"We had a number of submitted ideas for the cover artwork," said Araya. "And we felt Marcelo's was the best. We made some suggestions and the result is an awesome album cover."
"'Repentless' is my Jeff tribute," said Kerry King. "I call it the 'HannemAnthem.' It's my perspective of Jeff's perspective, it's what I think...if Jeff wrote a song for himself, 'Repentless' would be it."
Check out the full lyrics of the song here.
Repentless is due out on September 11th, 2015 via Nuclear Blast. It will also be available as the limited Repentless - Metal Eagle Edition. The limited (only 3000 copies worldwide) and numbered Metal Eagle Edition will be available exclusively via the Nuclear Blast online stores, while supplies last. It is made of aluminum alloy, weighs in at a hefty seven pounds, and will house a deluxe digipak of the new Repentless CD plus exclusive bonus content.
