Slayer, and their promo photo is in a church! Get it?

The campaign towards a World Painted Blood has begun, and the invasion starts in the US where Slayer will team up with Megadeth and Testament. Dudes in 1991 are stoked! Hmm… actually:

Megadeth and Slayer will join forces to co-headline “American Carnage”… the first time that… [they] will have toured the U.S. together since 1991’s epic “Clash of the Titans” tour. To celebrate that, and in recognition of the tough economic times that many of their fans are having, Megadeth and Slayer have decided to roll back the price of a chunk of tickets at every U.S. show to the “1991 price” of $10.00. These specially-priced tickets will be limited and when they’re gone, they’re gone.

$10 tickets, very cool… hopefully there is a substantial amount available. The tour includes February 11, 2010 at The Izod Center in East Rutherford, NJ; look for tickets to appear on Ticketmaster at some point. Slayer’s new LP World Painted Blood is their second LP since reuniting the original lineup of Araya-King-Hanneman-Lombardo. If you were a fan of Christ Illusion (I definitely was), pick it up.
