Well, who'd have thought it? Five years on from Slayer's final show and barely weeks after Kerry King finally unveiled his solo project, the thrash metal legends have announced they will reunite for a number of US festival appearances later this year including Aftershock, Riot Fest and Louder Than Life.
But what will they play? It's fair to say we can't imagine them dropping Angel Of Death or Raining Blood from the setlists any time soon, but with 12 studio albums to draw from and a collection of some of the greatest thrash metal anthems on the planet, we can't help but hope that they might dust off a few live rarities for their comeback.
