SLAYER: New Song To Be Released Soon; Studio Footage Available

Monday, 27th October 2014

SLAYER has released the first in a three-part series of clips featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the recording sessions for a new song at Henson Recording Studios in Hollywood, California. The track will be made available exclusively through Scion Audio/Visual (a.k.a. Scion AV), the in-house record label and lifestyle marketing division of the Scion marque produced by Toyota Motor Corporation for the North American market.

Speaking about SLAYER’s longevity, King said: “There’s no formula, man. When you think about it, how many people get to do this for 10 years. There’s so many that don’t. And we’re lucky enough to be one of the 30-year groups. Ther’s not very many of those at all. We’re still rocking. I know 35 is within reach, and then we’ll see about 40.”

On the subject of the recording process, King said: “It’s definitely kind of a drug, because we finished that song that we’re sending to Scion. Until it’s done, we don’t know what it’s gonna sound like. So when you hear it done, you’re, like, this is pretty fucking awesome.”

SLAYER is currently recording its new album for an early 2015 release. The album is being produced by Terry Date, who previously worked with the band on the song “Implode”, which was made available as a free download as a “thank you” to the band’s fans for their continued support following SLAYER’s surprise performance at this past April’s Revolver Golden Gods awards in Los Angeles.
