RIP Slayer

slayer's sucked for years now anyway and kerry king is a giant turd

I fucking hate seeing the business side of the music industry totally shit on musicians.

That really, really sucks for him. Basically what MO said.

Cool.

♫ Moneyy, it's gas...♫

Kerry King is a horrible guitarist, why does he get to push Dave around?

Bummer

Kerry is a kunt.

without kerry and his cool head tat, pocket chains, and unique beard nobody would care about this band

rock stars turn 40 and turn into businessmen

@Yankee what bullshit, that is if you are being serious.

"expecting to see the 3 of us original Slayer members"

But there are four of them..

thats fucked up. Fuck Kerry King, and their bullshit.

Kerry wasn't an original member was he? He was in Megadeth in the early years.

All I've had to do is look up on wikipedia to see hat Kerry King co-founded Slayer in 1981 and was in
Megadeth for a very short time after that c. 1984

They are all original members according to Wikipedia. Kerry and Lombardo being the founding members

So Dave has fucked up on that one haha

"Kerry wasn't an original member was he? He was in Megadeth in the early years."

You gotta be kidding.

Sorry, I wasn't born in 1981.

Money Talks.

Sounds like Dave is getting screwed over hard.

basically if you were planning on seeing this show wait for the next Australian tour

Another soap opera....

@TheBigLebowski
Kerry was an original member. He was hired by Dave after.

That statement on the 3rd and 4th paragraph suck, I feel bad for him. It's a shame that bands can be taken advantage of like that.

got to meet him on the last mayhem tour... cool dude

Well, he's certainly one of the most articulate metalheads I've come across. Very cool response without any "fuck the music industry!!!" statements.

i couldnt imagine seeing slayer without lombardo and hanneman

Fuck that sucks shit, by the sounds of things the band are getting fucked and just going along with it.

band sucks

This is simply preposterous.

Imho, Dave's best bet is indeed to quit Slayer, reform Grip Inc. and run it along with Philm or other side projects.

Sucks, and Kerry sounds like just as much of a dickless scumbag as the industry.

well, that's that then

So...the two best members of Slayer aren't in the band for this tour?

Poor Australia

Sucks. I second whoever said that the business side of the industry is getting out of hand.

Great. Now both of my favorite members of Slayer aren't playing in the band anymore, one of them can't headbang because he's a fossil, and the other one is a tribal-tattooed jerkoff. RIP Slayer?

I think he said 3 original members because Jeff is still sick. Anyways, this is absolute bullshit

Great. Now both of my favorite members of Slayer aren't playing in the band anymore, one of them can't headbang because he's a fossil, and the other one is a tribal-tattooed jerkoff

hahaha, this is the sad truth though.

Everything for money.

If the band had any integrity they'd put the tour on the shelf.

who cares

Kerry is a piece of shit

wow, so Slayer is run by lawyers?? that's kinda sad and doesn't elp in their aim of being fear inducingly evil...

Kerry King still being a faggot I see.

Bullshit

oooh dear

Fuck, why has this gotta happen just when I get confirmation that I'm gonna see them in the summer?

So in other words, he noticed they weren't making any real money and tried to offer a reasonable solution. And instead of listening to him, his neanderthal bandmates just grunted and told him to go home? Brilliant.

Slayer last excellent album was Seasons after that they lost me somehow ''Christ Illusion and Divine Intervention'' are ok though.hmmm

What I don't get is why Kerry would vehemently be against a new business model where they all make more money; something fishy going on here.

What about the music mang.

Why the hell has being in a band become so complicated? I feel sorry for the man.

It was the adrenaline

"What I don't get is why Kerry would vehemently be against a new business model where they all make more money; something fishy going on here."

To me it sounds like Dave was the main one getting shafted, and he didn't realize his bandmates are making bank while he's getting fucked. So when he confronted them about it, they got defensive and told him to fuck off. Didn't Sabbath just do the same fucking thing to Bill Ward?

kerry king is such a faggot

poor Dave

kerry king is such a faggot[2]

fuck man

Kerry is quite the douche.

What a bunch of bullshit.

Slayer should have ended after Christ Illusion, gone out on a high note cause the last album was a stinker. And if this is true, fuck Slayer and Kerry King.

Imho, Dave's best bet is indeed to quit Slayer, reform Grip Inc. and run it along with Philm or other side projects.

And then I notice this from one of the best users on this site ; ). Philm rules and I would love to see him persue them instead of Slayer any day.

^ya

One of the most legendary rock/metal drummers of all time, and they kicked him the hell out. Wow.

wow...been in the band for what, 30 years? Only to get kicked out via E-mail...You're a giant fucking pansy Kerry King, those tattoo's ain't fooling anyone.

Hopefully Slayer fans will choose not to attend the shows, but that's very unlikely. Somebody should start a petition

Not the first time he's been kicked out/left. Kerry is a giant fucktard

Lombardo deserves to do what he wants. I say fuck Slayer and start a new band. What talent wouldn't want to play with Lombardo?

Slayer had a good run.

Looking forward to The Lombardos.

He should do something worthwhile, talent has been going to waste for quite a while. Kerry King is a douche

Fantomas reunion, anyone?

^ that

holy shit that sucks....but slayer has sucked for years now. lombardo is the man, kerry king truly does seem like a huge piece of shit (all the songs he writes suck ass too, hanneman ftw), and the biggest tragedy is that ill never see them live now :'(

Honestly it would be just the best if he quit Slayer, decks Kerry King and rejoins Testament if the position became open.

Shitty that has happened, Money fucks over everything in the end, But new fantomas or grip inc or whatever dave will do will most likely be better then the slayer, whatever that will be..........

SUHHHHLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRHGGGGHH

* the new slayer for you grammar police.

But, HSThomas, Testament have Gene Hoglan atm. No way they'll ditch the Atomic Clock.

lol fired.

edit: not as funny without the avatar.

He should join Testament. Jury adjourned.

BUT GENE HOGLAN
