Kerry King, former guitarist and songwriter for Slayer, embarked on a new chapter after the band’s final show in 2019, with his debut solo album From Hell I Rise, released in May 2024. Featuring 13 powerful tracks, King’s signature aggressive sound remains, blending brutal riffs, incisive lyrics, and politically charged themes. The band includes Mark Osegueda of Death Angel on vocals, former Vio-lence and Machine Head guitarist Phil Demmel, Hellyeah bassist Kyle Sanders, and Slayer and former Testament, Forbidden and Exodus drummer Paul Bostaph. King, driven by musical ambitions from his Slayer days, promises a blend of new material and classic Slayer songs in upcoming live performances.
