NEW SLAYER ALBUM ON JULY 7!!! NEW SLAYER ALBUM ON JULY 7!!! NEW SLAYER ALBUM ON JULY 7!!!

KNAC.com is reporting that the new, still-untitled Slayer offering will arrive on July 7. I know that there’s probably as many readers who aren’t excited about a new Slayer album as there are readers who will take this as good news, but whatever. A new Slayer record is always good news to me.

The first song from the album, “Psychopathy Red,” was released way back in October, and is, in all likelihood, the single best Slayer song of the past eighteen years. I bought one of the awesome limited pressing 7-inch singles made for Record Store Day, and have been making sweet, sweet love to it ever since.

Seriously, anyone who was excited for Death Magnetic but not for this album is a gosh darn fool.

Here’s “Psychopathy Red,” in case you need a reminder of how killer it is.
