The guitarist analyzes his relationship with the singer of the Thrash Metal band
The guitarist of SLAYER Kerry King He has clarified in an interview his current relationship with the vocalist Tom Arayawith whom he admitted in his day not to have treatment. The artists are acting together after the meeting of the Thrash Metal group in 2024.
Speaking to Cucamonga, King maintains:
“I think he death of Jeff Hanneman [guitarrista] He weighed more in Tom than in me. And I don’t say it for friendship. It’s just that my reaction was not as strong as Tom’s. Of course, it was horrible and nobody would have wanted it to happen, but really Tom affected a lot. I think that was what made him want to leave him before mebecause I think I felt that the band was different.
But then, out of nowhere, Tom decided that he wanted to do some concerts with Slayer last year and I thought: ‘Well, I never wanted to stop playing. So, let’s try. ‘
“We don’t talk on the phone”
As in Slayer’s first years, We don’t talk on the phone. We rarely send messages. And that is just because when you are together for 40 years … as a person has changed a lot. It is not the guy with which I started the band. I have not done it, I have basically kept the same as when I was 20 years old.
-“Things are fine among us”
In prosecution:
“Anyway, Tom pleases me and things are well among us. We get together [para ensayar para los conciertos de reunión de SLAYER]. It was not uncommon. We did those two concerts [Riot Fest de Chicago y el festival Aftershock de Sacramento]. I was superconant. After the second concert We have some glasses together. He drinks tequila and I love tequila, so that’s what we drank.
The first idea of playing this year was for the Louder Than Life Festival that we lost last year because of the hurricane. So we reprogram it and said: ‘If we are never going to touch, I want to fix things with the promoter’, because it was not our fault. He wanted us to play, so we will play there this year. Then we are going to play in that Black Sabbath concert. I’m looking forward to it, fuck. “
