Slayer Unleashes "Slaytanic Verses: Live Assaults 1981 Through Today" Museum
Classic Slayer redefined metal: it became the furthest frontier of extreme metal in the 1980s. For people who discovered metal after that time, the early years of Slayer remain a mystery shrouded in the same mixture of rose-colored nostalgia and dark Cold War vibes through which we now see that era. Addressing this need, Slayer have unleashed a retrospective museum-type exhibit of Slayer art, trivia, and memorabilia with the "Slaytanic Verses: Live Assaults 1981 Through Today" website.
As the Slaytanic Verses exhibit declares:
Welcome to the Slaytanic Verses, where the official Slayer archives are shared with you - the most diabolical and diehard fans in existence.
Slaytanic Verses is packed with deep dives and rare, behind-the-scenes glimpses into Slayer history. Here, fans will discover real stories and have access to exclusive, authenticated collectibles directly from the band. Photos, gear, artwork, instruments, and first-hand accounts collected over decades will guide you through the band's journey.
This is just the beginning. The Slaytanic Verses archive and collectibles store will continue to expand, offering even more from the conquests and chaos of Slayer's indelible legacy.
All hail Slayer.
Arguably the most powerful, enigmatic, and disturbing heavy metal band in existence, Slayer continues to delight fans and horrify parents forty-three years after its founding in 1981. The best part of Slaytanic Verses may be the "early years" material showing the growth of Slayer from an Orange County NWOBHM and punk cover band to the untamed blur of distortion and fire that toured the USA and left collateral damage in its wake at every turn.
