Slayer's new album called "Christ Illusion" hits stores today, 08/08. You can stream the album in its entirety on the band's My Space page.

 

 

 

The album stream surfaced in the wake of a conflict between Slayer and the city of Fullerton, CA, where all 17 of the Slayer bus benches had to be removed because of the "offensive" Antichrist and skull logo, and the band̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s name which the city felt referred to "murderer."

 

 

 

 

 

"We were told that the city was getting so much attention through the press and online exposure, they just flat-out removed them," reads a statement from the band's publicist. "However, lots of Orange County, CA areas surrounding Fullerton where the benches still sit proud, sporting the cover art for Slayer's 'Christ Illusion' album, due out tomorrow [August 8]."

Meanwhile, AOL Radio has launched an "All Slayer" station. It features a playlist of every song ever released by the legendary band, including B-sides and tracks "Christ Illusion". To access the station, click here.

 

 

 

"Having Slayer's music played on AOL Radio is pretty mind-numbing," said Kerry King in a statement. "It's terrific that the station will be playing every song we've ever recorded for our fans."

 

 

 

In other Slayer news, the band is going to film a war-themed video for the song "Eyes Of The Insane" with director Tony Petrossian (Killswitch Engage, Slipknot, Stone Sour). No further details are available at this time.
