SLAYER To Celebrate 40th Anniversary Of 'Reign In Blood' At Inaugural SICK NEW WORLD TEXAS In October 2026

California thrash metal legends SLAYER will celebrate the 40th anniversary of their classic third album, "Reign In Blood", at the inaugural Sick New World Texas, set to take place October 24, 2026 at the Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas. Also scheduled to appear are SYSTEM OF A DOWN, DEFTONES, EVANESCENCE, THE PRODIGY, Marilyn Manson, KNOCKED LOOSE, AFI, MINISTRY, MASTODON, POWER TRIP and many more. Fans can sign up now at SickNewWorldFest.com/Texas for the official newsletter and SMS list to receive an access code for the presale beginning Friday, October 24 at 10 a.m. CT. A same-day public on-sale will follow for any remaining tickets.

SLAYER's only U.S. East Coast performance of 2025 took place on September 20 at Hershey, Pennsylvania's 30,000-seat Hersheypark Stadium. Two days earlier, SLAYER performed at the Louder Than Life festival in Louisville, Kentucky. The Louder Than Life show marked the reunited thrash metal pioneers' fourth full concert of 2025, following the band's appearances the 35,000-capacity Blackweir Fields in Cardiff, U.K., London, U.K.'s 45,000-capacity Finsbury Park, and the 100,000-capacity Festival D'été De Québec in Canada. SLAYER also helped celebrate BLACK SABBATH's incredible career by playing a six-song set at SABBATH's sold-out "Back To The Beginning" final concert on July 5 at Villa Park in Birmingham, England.

The lineup for all of SLAYER's comeback shows in 2024 and 2025 was the same as the one which last toured in 2019: guitarist Kerry King and drummer Paul Bostaph, along with bassist/vocalist Tom Araya and guitarist Gary Holt.

"Reign In Blood" was released on October 7, 1986 through Def Jam Recordings. The album was the band's first collaboration with record producer Rick Rubin, whose input helped the band's sound evolve. Kerrang! magazine described the record as "the heaviest album of all time," and a breakthrough in thrash metal and speed metal.

"Reign In Blood"'s release was delayed because of concerns regarding its graphic artwork and lyrical subject matter. The opening track, "Angel Of Death", which refers to Josef Mengele and describes acts such as human experimentation that Mengele committed at the Auschwitz concentration camp, provoked allegations of Nazism. However, the bandmembers stated numerous times they do not condone Nazism, and are merely interested in the subject.

On the topic the controversy surrounding "Reign In Blood"'s lyrical content, SLAYER guitarist Jeff Hanneman previously said, "'Angel Of Death' was a big problem. I remember getting a phone call after the album was done: Sony wasn't going to release it. I remember being at home, pissed, throwing things. What the fuck? I didn't think anything was wrong with 'Angel Of Death' or anything else we did, it's a documentary! There's no 'Heil Hitler' or 'white people rule,' it's a documentary; grow up, people. It took months before they picked it up again. Finally, we got signed by a distributor."

"Reign In Blood" was SLAYER's first album to enter The Billboard 200 chart (at No. 94). The LP was certified gold by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association Of America) on November 20, 1992 for sales in excess of 500,000 copies.

In a 2009 interview with Filter magazine, Araya stated about "Reign In Blood", "On that first album [together], Rubin made sure that he recorded. He wanted to duplicate what he was hearing." King added, "It was the first time you actually heard SLAYER in its pure ferocity, and it made a big difference. One funny thing about that album is if it came out today, no one would give a shit. They'd say, 'That's cool.' But at the time it came out it made such a difference. People still reflect on that as a poignant time, where shit changed."

Back in October 2021, SLAYER drummer Dave Lombardo told Metal Injection about "Reign In Blood": "I look at that album as a masterpiece. And it's one of those albums that will stand the test of time. It's brilliant. The fire, the energy that that album has. I don't hear that in other records. I don't know if it's because I'm listening to a band that I was part of that I have this perspective that's objective. But you know, it's brilliant and I'm very appreciative … I think that album will forever be like the epitome of thrash music and part of a historic time in music history… SLAYER had a certain energy that's unlike anything else. And so that definitely is for me one of the greatest metal records ever made."

а годовщину своего распада будут отмечать "парой концертов, ничего большего"?

22 окт 2025

Rainmaker665

R0ck_N_R0lla, а они разве завершили деятельность полностью? Там же речь шла о том, что Слэйер:
А) больше не будут записывать альбомы
Б) больше не будут делать туры

Всё так и соблюдают.

Идентичную текстовку видел у Мегадет, поэтому и они, разумеется, будут давать отдельные концерты, почему бы и нет, отличный способ постепенного ухода на пенсию.

Rainmaker665, сейчас пролистал местные новости, вот эта тема с "ну мы закончили только с гастролями", появилась после окончания прощального тура, видимо ребяты смекнули, что надо бы оставить пути для отхода. само понятие прощального тура означает что все, группа прощается со своей аудиторией, по крайней мере в концертном плане, фанаты прикладывают усилия, чтобы увидеть любимую группу в последний раз. а тут хуяк и три концерта в честь пятилетия окончания концертной деятельности. хуяк и концерт в честь годовщины альбома.

R0ck_N_R0lla, отнюдь, понятие прощального тура буквально означает последний тур (вещь, которая и выматывает музыкантов больше всего на свете). Если речь идет о прямо последнем концерте, это обговаривается отдельно, как у Оззи. Слэйер закончили вообще ни разу не старыми, с чего им никогда больше не выступать, если они могут. У Мегадет в заявлении ничего о последнем концерте тоже нету, но потом опять начнутся те же странные обвинения людей, не читавших их заявления дальше заголовка и в 500 миллионный раз вспомнивших про Скорпионс.

Фанаты прикладывают усилия, чтобы попасть на концерт. Те же самые люди с удовольствиям приложат усилия, чтобы попасть еще раз. А есть еще куча людей на прощальный тур не попавших, просто отлично, что часть из них еще смогут увидеть любимые бэнды. Как будто забываем иногда, что подобные вещи нужны вовсе не только группе for money, от этого польза всем
