Slayer confirms UK dates

With the release of their new studio album World Painted Blood set for November 2nd in the UK, Thrash titans SLAYER have announced a headlining tour of the UK later the same month. Over a career spanning three decades, Slayer have solidified their position as one of the biggest and most important metal bands in the world, a name synonymous with hard aggressive music, and punishingly brutal live shows.

Early reports claim the latest album to be their finest work since the 1986 classic Reign In Blood, with the band themselves agreeing "It sounds like the stuff we wrote in the '80's".
