Slayer said their live farewell in 2019, but they returned to the stage five years later, and continue to play the occasional show and festival. Their classic third album Reign in Blood turns 40 this year, and they’ll celebrate with two new headlining shows this fall where they play the album in full. They happen at Shakopee, MN’s Mystic Lake Amphitheater on September 4, and Inglewood, CA’s Kia Forum on November 13 (their first LA show in 7 years). Tickets go on sale Friday, April 24 at 10 AM local, with various presales starting today (4/21) at 12 PM local.
The MN show is with Down, Suicidal Tendencies, and Hatebreed, and the CA show is with Cannibal Corpse, Cavalera, and Crowbar (that’s some alliteration!).
Slayer are also playing Oklahoma festival Rocklahoma and the Texas edition of Sick New World this fall. See their full schedule below, and pick up Slayer vinyl and merch in the BV shop.
