It's good to be playing one and a half hour again. In the States we played like an hour and when you got onstage it felt like all of a sudden you are already done your set. But now, it feels like we are touring again.

No, my first figure was a SLAYER eagle. And the dragons and the tribals are all I have got. I wish that I only would have done the SLAYER eagle and not the dragons ´coz I like tribals that stand out from a distance. Like you could be a snowblind in the concert and you are still gonna see it. That´s why I like about it.

I try to incorporate melody. Even though I'm screaming, I still like to think I bring melody into screaming.
Tom Araya Slayer -
I read true crime books, and I read when people do case studies of stuff. I'm into books like that. Case studies or forensics or murder - all that good stuff.
Tom Araya Slayer -
If I'm in a corner, I like my corner. It's the coolest corner I've ever been in.
Kerry King Slayer -
I believe in a supreme being, yeah. But He's an all-loving God.
Tom Araya Slayer -
I don't really have a life philosophy; my thing is just rebelling against pretty much organized religion. That is my main thing, because personally I think it's a crutch for people that are too weak to get through life on their own. I'm the kind of guy that says if I don't see it, then it doesn't work. And nobody can show me God.
Kerry King Slayer -
It's fun when you are on tour to go a place you are familiar with in any given city. It's like being home away from home.

That was the reasoning behind learning to play bass, and then after that it was more like it was neat to play songs together - for me to play bass and for him to play guitar.
Tom Araya Slayer -
We did like 12 shows, then we did the entire Ozzfest with the first half completely booked; then we did the second half with a couple days off here and there.
Tom Araya Slayer -
I've never thrown out a TV set out of some hotel's window, but I have thrown a microwave out of one 'coz it was cooler.
Kerry King Slayer -
I write when I have to; I write when the song is done and I deal with the idea and I just go with it and I'll become what that song is all about until I have finished it. And when you do that, it makes the song more visual, it makes it more personal.
Kerry King Slayer -
We were not a close family, but that doesn't matter.
Tom Araya Slayer -
Yeah, yeah I think that's one of the biggest misconceptions towards the band. The biggest one is that we're Satan worshippers, but next to that just the fact that we're normal.

Chart numbers can be deceiving. An album doesn't have to sell that much these days to show up really high on the charts.
Kerry King Slayer -
Venom were the first thrash band i heard on record-it really pushed me to the best!
Kerry King Slayer -
Lyrics are always the last thing to get done.
Jeff Hanneman Slayer -
My strangest media moment a photo session they all had dressed up like 50 gangsters. That was pretty cool. We have to get some more of those kind of photos sometimes.
Kerry King Slayer -
Venom was a band that strongly influenced the image and the idea behind Slayer.
Tom Araya Slayer -
This new one was held for a couple months, so I guess it was better, but when we go into thinking our next record tragedy, it traditionally will probably change the distribution again and it will get held up again.

The judicial discretion has been fettered greatly by the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
Gary Holt Slayer -
I was born and raised Catholic, so it's in my blood. I don't go to church... I was born and raised Catholic, which is about the extent of my religion. My parents made one request: that I have my first Holy Communion.
Tom Araya Slayer -
If I'm ever feeling uninspired, all I have to do is go see Exodus or Arch Enemy, and think 'Oh yeah, that's what we're doing this for.'
Kerry King Slayer -
People are not in good shape to where they have to question their own belief system because of a book or a story somebody wrote, or a SLAYER song.
