SLAYER To Issue Reign In Blood Live DVD [Hot Flashes - 04.07.07 20:28:41]

SLAYER will issue Reign In Blood Live: Still Reigning on September 28, 2004 on American records. Here's the official press release:

For the first time in the bands long career, fans will be able to see the original Slayer line-up performing an entire concert live on DVD when the band releases Reign In Blood Live: Still Reigning on September 28, 2004. The DVD will have an approximate 75-minute running time and will retail for $14.98.

On Reign In Blood: Still Reigning, the original members of Slayer - Tom Araya (vocals, bass), guitarists Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman, and drummer Dave Lombardo (who permanently rejoined the band in 2003) - will perform in its entirety Reign In Blood, the 28-minute, 1986 classic considered to this day the pinnacle album of its genre.

Reign in Blood is our signature record, and if people think that it helped set the path for that genre of music, thats great, said Araya. Its a record that means a lot to all of us in the band - it was our first record for a major label, and our first record with Rick Rubin who gave it unconditional support.

Reign In Blood: Still Reigning will be directed by Dean Karr (IRON MAIDEN), and is set to be shot this Sunday, July 11 at the Civic Center in Augusta, ME. Ten cameras, including three hand-held mini-DVs, will capture Slayer throughout the day and evening, filming an abundance of footage and interviews shot backstage, on the bands tour bus, and live on stage.

In an effort to revisit the look and feel of the time, the band will have a special Reign In Blood stage backdrop, and has recreated some of the original stage banners from the mid-80s Reign In Blood-era tour dates, which incorporate the Slayer eagle and the controversial upside-down crosses that are part of the lighting rig. And some special on-stage surprises are planned for the DVD.

If what were planning for the final 45-seconds of the song Raining Blood looks half as cool as we hope it will, added guitarist King, the kids will be blown away. And well probably have to replace all of our gear!

Slayer play the Main Stage at this Summers Ozzfest, due to kick off this Saturday, July 10. On the Ozzfest offdays, Slayer will co-headline a slew of concerts with JUDAS PRIEST or SLIPNOT.

Well sounds really good to me !!!

and the bonus stuff sounds cool aswell but ofcourse some cunts will argue they are crap and just wanting more money

So, they'll be dropping a load of blood onto the stage then...? Anyone would think they'd been to a Karloff show. :rolleyes:
