Kerry King has revealed that he and his former Slayer bandmate Tom Araya haven't exchanged a single word of conversation, a single text message or a single email since the thrash metal legends split five years ago.
Slayer played their final show on November 30, 2019, at the Forum in Inglewood, California, and in an exclusive interview with RollingStone.com, guitarist King, who has admitted that he was somewhat blindsided by Araya's decision to retire from music, says that the pair have not been in contact since.
"I don’t wish him dead at this moment," King states at one point, which is about as much love as he shows for Araya during his three-hour conversation with writer Kory Grow.
