JEFF HANNEMAN Says He Has 'Three Songs Started' For Next SLAYER Album

August 14, 2007

SLAYER guitarist Jeff Hanneman has revealed that he has already started writing material for the follow-up to the group's "Christ Illusion" CD, which came out last year. Speaking to YeboTV, Jeff said, "I've got, like, probably about three songs started. I think we'll probably just take a couple of months off and then start writing."

Asked if he ever writes material that doesn't suit SLAYER, Hanneman said, "Oh, yeah, I write tons of shit like that. It's basically just for fun… because I've got a drum machine, a recorder — like a mini-studio at home. I'll just go in, throw down some drums, play some guitar riffs for fun… just to have fun. And once in a while, a riff will show up and I'll go, 'Hey, I can use that in SLAYER.' And I'll jus ttake that out and build a song around it."

YeboTV, a next generation web-based TV network, has launched SlayerTV — featuring nothing but SLAYER live footage and interviews all day long — at this location.

YeboTV will stream SLAYER's concert at the San Diego Sports Arena on Saturday, August 25 starting just before 8:00 p.m. PDT. This will be a live, real-time stream viewable to fans globally on www.YeboTV.com. In addition, fans can access the broadcast on Slayer.net, HotTop.com, and esp.com.

The San Diego concert is a stop on SLAYER's current North American co-headline tour with MARILYN MANSON and is in support of the release of SLAYER's "Christ Illusion, Special Limited Edition" CD/DVD (American Recordings) which hit stores on July 24.
