Slayer Put On Hold

US metal band Slayer have delayed the release of their new album. As previously reported on Dis, 'God Hates Us All' was set for a July 10th release, but this has now been set back.

In a statement from the bands publicist, the reasons were stated as being that the band wanted to add some finishing touches to the new album and make sure the artwork was as they wanted as well as the albums producer, Rick Rubin, remixing some of the albums tracks.

The album, to be released on Rick Rubin's label, American Recordings, is set for late August but no exact date has yet been confirmed.
