SLAYER To Announce New Co-Headlining Tour Next Week

January 22, 2009

According to the Artisan News Service, veteran Los Angeles thrashers SLAYER will announce a new co-headlining tour on Monday, January 26.

The members of SLAYER spent a couple of weeks in a Southern California recording studio in October tracking three new songs, including "Psychopathy Red". The Jeff Hanneman-penned song gives a chilling look into the twisted mind of Andrei Chikatilo, a notorious Russian serial killer.

"I've been making up riffs," SLAYER guitarist Kerry King told the Artisan News Service at this past weekend's NAMM (National Association Of Music Merchants) show, which was held January 15-18 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California. "I myself don't have any songs done but now that NAMM is over I can just sit in my room all week and finish them. I got a lot of great ideas, it's just not finished material."

Multi-camera video footage of SLAYER performing the new song "Psychopathy Red" at the B1 Maximum club in Moscow, Russia on November 29, 2008 can be viewed below. Also included is backstage footage from the Moscow concert.
