SLAYER To Perform On 'Late Night With Jimmy Fallon'
August 3, 2010California thrash metal veterans SLAYER will perform the song "Hate Worldwide" on the Tuesday, August 10 edition of NBC-TV's "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon". The show will air at 12:35 a.m. ET (technically early Wednesday morning, August 11).
"Hate Worldwide" was nominated for a 2010 Grammy Award in the "Best Metal Performance" category. The award eventually went to British heavy metal legends JUDAS PRIEST, who were honored for the track "Dissident Aggressor", from the band's 2009 live album "A Touch of Evil: Live".
"Hate Worldwide" comes off SLAYER's latest album, "World Painted Blood", which was recorded in Los Angeles over two time periods, during October 2008 and then between late January and March 2009. The CD was produced by Greg Fidelman, who's spent time in the studio with METALLICA, THE GOSSIP, THE (INTERNATIONAL) NOISE CONSPIRACY, SLIPKNOT and others, and executive-produced by longtime SLAYER colleague Rick Rubin, who suggested Fidelman for the project.
The CD initially shipped with four special collector's edition covers. Each of the four covers displayed one-fourth of a provocative continental map illustrated with human skulls and bones; when placed together, the four images form a complete and grisly map of the world. All four of the initial album packages included a special blood-red, see-through top panel with the map displayed beneath it.
"Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" is a late-night talk show that airs Monday through Friday on NBC. The program is hosted by Jimmy Fallon, a stand-up comedian and actor.
