About Slayer

Slayer, hailing from Huntington Park, California, is a pioneering force in the thrash metal scene, formed in 1981 by the formidable lineup of Tom Araya, Jeff Hanneman, Kerry King, and Dave Lombardo. Known for their blistering speed and brutal intensity, Slayer is often hailed as one of the "big four" of thrash metal, standing alongside Metallica, Megadeth, and Anthrax. Their discography is a treasure trove of extreme metal classics, with standout tracks like "Angel of Death" and "Raining Blood" from their seminal album "Reign in Blood" (1986) that have left an indelible mark on the genre. Slayer's current lineup features Araya, King, drummer Paul Bostaph, and guitarist Gary Holt, who joined permanently after Hanneman's passing in 2013. The band's influence extends far and wide, inspiring countless fans and musicians with their uncompromising sound and intense live performances. Slayer's return to the UK in 2025 with massive shows in Cardiff and London is a testament to their enduring legacy and the anticipation they continue to generate among metal enthusiasts worldwide.
