Kerry King , guitarist for Slayer, commented on the band's preparations for the farewell event of the original Black Sabbath Back To The Beginning event , which takes place on July 5th at Villa Park in Birmingham, England.
In an interview with Rolling Stone Brazil , the guitarist excitedly confirmed that Slayer will be doing a Black Sabbath cover: “I chose our song late, when there weren’t so many obvious options left, but the one I chose will work really well. I’ve been working on it with my solo band, so Paul [ Bostaph ] and I have already been able to rehearse. We just need to get Tom [ Araya ] and Gary [ Holt ] together later, probably in June we’ll rehearse together.”
Other bands participating in the event include Alice in Chains , Anthrax , Gojira , Guns N' Roses , Halestorm , Lamb of God , Mastodon , Metallica , Pantera , Roses, and Tool .
The event will reunite the original Black Sabbath lineup for the first time in 20 years: Tony Iommi , Geezer Butler , Bill Ward, and Ozzy Osbourne .
