Slayer adds more dates, mixing new album
Thrash metal act Slayer have announced more additions to their Unholy Alliance Tour. The bill, planned as an alternative to the more mainstream Ozzfest, will feature Mastodon, Lamb of God, Children of Bodom and Thine Eyes Bleed.
Slayer will deliver an hour-plus set to close out each night of the Unholy Alliance; Thine Eyes Bleed will open on all dates, followed by Bodom and Mastodon (who'll be rotating slots) and then Lamb of God.
The two-decade running metal act - who has influenced countless metal, hardcore and other bands - have begun mixing their upcoming full length. The as yet untitled new album is due out this fall, is the first new studio album since
1990's "Seasons In The Abyss" that features the entire original Slayer
lineup (drummer Lombardo left the band in 1992 and rejoined in 2003).
