January 16, 2007

According to a press release from mPRm Public Relations, tickets for SLAYER's January 19 appearance on ABC-TV's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" sold out in about four hours, matching the performance of such superstar acts as JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, KORN and LINKIN PARK.

SLAYER will make its first-ever network television appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" The band will play two songs on air, "Jihad" and "Mandatory Suicide", as well as three additional off-air tracks for a crowd of over 1,000 people.

As previously reported, SLAYER will embark on an Australian/New Zealand tour in April. Support at the shows will come from MASTODON.

American Recordings has pushed back the projected release date of the "Unholy Alliance" CD+DVD package to February 27 from the previously announced February 13. Filmed on July 13, 2006 at Vancouver's 18,000-seat General Motors Place, "Unholy Alliance" features performance footage from SLAYER, LAMB OF GOD, MASTODON, CHILDREN OF BODOM and THINE EYES BLEED. DVD bonuses include backstage footage and band interviews.

SLAYER's "Christ Illusion" album, which debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard chart, has sold just under 150,000 copies in the United States since its Aug. 8 release, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
