Follow us on Twitter & Facebook Slayer Announce Farewell Tour Behemoth, Anthrax,<br />

Testament and Lamb of God will support. Editor's Note: This story has been updated with<br />

tour dates. Thrash innovators Slayer have been going strong since 1981, and their shows<br />

have always reliably been just about the most fun place to get punched in the head. It’s hard<br />

to picture the band hanging it up, especially after they survived the 2013 death of founding<br />

guitarist Jeff Hanneman. But the band now claims that they’re just about done. In a new<br />

video, the band has announced “one, final world tour,” with “final North American dates<br />

coming soon.” Here’s the video, which is full of archival images: Slayer announced that they<br />

will be joined on the outing by Anthrax, Testament, Lamb of God and Behemoth on the tour,<br />

which kicks off on May 10 in San Diego. A day after announcing the final lap, the group<br />

released the official list of dates. North American Slayer tour dates:<br />
