SLAYER: '33 1/3: Reign in Blood' Book Author To Guest On 'The Classic Metal Show'

July 17, 2008

D.X. Ferris, author of "33 1/3: Reign in Blood", the first English-language book about SLAYER, and XYZ founder/bassist Pat Fontaine will be interviewed live on this weekend's (Saturday, July 19) edition of "The Classic Metal Show".

"The Classic Metal Show" can be heard live every Saturday night between 9:00 p.m. EST and 3:00 a.m. EST at www.cmsradio.net.

Continuum Books' "33 1/3: Reign in Blood" explores the creation of the most universally respected metal album, its long road to stores, its ongoing influence, and the history of the greatest thrash band.

Ferris conducted dozens of interviews specifically for the book, talking to all members of SLAYER, producer Rick Rubin, engineer Andy Wallace, cover artist Larry Carroll, and Def Jam insiders from Russell Simmons to MC Serch. From Tori Amos to PANTERA's Phil Anselmo, a host of fans and artists discuss the record's ongoing impact and SLAYER's status in the small fraternity of rock's greatest groups.

XYZ recently released a best-of collection combining original recordings off the first and second CDs, along with a brand new track that Fontaine and XYZ vocalist Terry Ilous wrote together called "Falling in You". "The Best of XYZ" is limited to 500 copies.
