Slayer announced their retirement
Slayer has released the second part of a video series reminiscing about their history. In the video, which can be watched below, the band talks about their first shows.
"The first time I played with Slayer, I'd probably only done about 10 shows or less in my entire life ," said guitarist Kerry King.
“I think at our first show, we made some light canisters at home. After that experience, we used different tapes to cover the cans, but the cans exploded,” recalls Tom Araya, bassist and vocalist. “We slept in basements, warehouses. I don’t know how we survived those trips.”
Slayer announced earlier this year that they are saying goodbye to the stage. Their final tour will begin on May 10th in the United States, alongside Lamb Of God, Testament, Anthrax, and Behemoth.
