Last Friday, the 20th, Rolling Stone magazine From Hell I Rise by Slayer guitarist Kerry King.
The editors wrote that the guitarist's first solo album "wants his fans to understand that, although Slayer is essentially destined for hell, he is still Satan's preeminent ambassador."
“In From Hell I Rise , King is still drinking his tequila, still messing around with riffs, and still not in love with priests. In other words, it sounds like Slayer — and sometimes, Slayer at their best,” they conclude.
