I know Red Scare is known for being a buncha godless commies but even WE like fun times and baseball. We're pretty sure you'll enjoy this stuff too, so scamper over to iTunes and check out this EP. We'll leave the baseball puns to them, they're way better at it.

Check out the album via iTunes here.

Slayer talks "World Painted Blood"
Posted by aubin on Tuesday, June 30, 2009 at 10:00 AM (EDT)
American Recordings

Slayer recently spoke to Billboard about their forthcoming album, World Painted Blood, and what can be expected from the new material. The group finished 13 tracks -- six by King, seven by fellow guitarist Jeff Hanneman -- 11 of which will appear on the album.

I like when Jeff writes as much as he did for this record. When you have one guy doing most of the writing you only get one perspective. A lot of Jeff's stuff has a very punky vibe this time; the stuff I write sounds thrashy but with a hint of punk, and when Jeff writes the stuff is more punk with a hint of thrash. It works together well.

Song titles include "Beauty Through Order," "Unit 731," "Playing with Dolls," "Public Display of Dismemberment," "Americon" and the title track.
