SLAYER Frontman Comments On GRAMMY Win: 'I Guess We're Part Of The Industry Now'

SLAYER frontman vocalist/bassist Tom Araya has commented on winning a Grammy in the "Best Metal Performance" category in the pre-telecast ceremony at the 50th annual Grammy Awards, which was held Sunday night (February 10) at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. SLAYER was nominated for the track "The Final Six", from the band's 2007 limited-edition "Christ Illusion". The song, written by Araya and guitarist Jeff Hanneman and produced by Josh Abraham, is a chilling look at an hypothesized end of the world. The track made its debut last July as the "Single of the Week" on MySpace where it has since accumulated some 750,000 plays, an astounding number for a song that received no commercial airplay.

"This is awesome," Araya stated backstage. "I guess we're part of the industry now, above ground. None of those tunnel diggings anymore. No, this is our second win actually. It's kind of exciting. We've been fortunate to have been around this long with no radio play. We've gotten support from satellite radio recently, MTV gave us minimal support, but it's all on word of mouth and people liking what we do and passing it on to their friends. We owe a lot of our success to our fans. The industry is great, but the fans are the ones that take the time to look you up to see what you're doing, wait for the record to come out and buy it so..."

SLAYER was honored with a Grammy in the "Best Metal Performance" category in the pre-telecast ceremony at the 50th annual Grammy Awards, which are being held tonight (Sunday, February 10) at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. SLAYER was nominated for the track "The Final Six", from the band's 2007 limited-edition "Christ Illusion".

The track made its debut last July as the "Single of the Week" on MySpace where it has since accumulated some 750,000 plays, an astounding number for a song that received no commercial airplay.

A visibly nervous Araya accepted the award, stating, "Thank you very much. I don't know what to say. This is our second time. I have to thank Sony, first off, for reissuing the record and putting this new song on the album, and now I'm here again — we are here again, actually. Most of all, [I'd like to] thank Rick Rubin [producer and head of American Recordings], who's been with us, been there for us for the past 23 years, 24 years. Thank you. My wife, my two kids; Sandra [wife], Ariel and Tommy. They're here with me. Of course, my manager, who's been with us for a good 20 years now. Well, thank you very much. Thank the Academy. Thank you."

Надеюсь новый альбом Slayer после таких заявлений не станет такой же частью бизнеса как и "Load" известной группы?

неужели до Арайи дошло!!!

Вся эта Грэмми - полная параша. Можно подумать слэйер хоть когда-то делал что-либо музыкальное.

Можно подумать что там все остальные только музыкальное всё делают...

Slayer отличная группа. и Арайа прав что популярность группы в первую очередь идет от фэнов. не от мтв не от радио .
Slayer forever!

Грэми вручили слэйеру - господа офицеры, это начало конца.

Уверен ,что Слеера понимают что Гремми - это туфта, и не какие компромисы не пойдут. Последние альбомы у них очень злые и жесткие.
Вообще-то это одна из самых лучших метал групп всех времен.
Возможно вручатели гремми таким образом пытаются заигрывать с прослойкой фэнов, склоняющихся к более легкой и коммерческой музыке? ??

Надеюсь новый альбом не будет возвращением к War Ensemble как Christ Illusion, а станет продолжением God Hates Us All...

"...мы теперь часть большого бизнеса - теперь мы парим над землёй" И чему тут радоваться? Или хочется повторить судьбу Металлики?
