Including never-before-seen pictures, artwork, stories and more Thrash metal icons Slayer have announced the launch of their new digital museum, the Slaytanic Verses . READ MORE: Slayer film ‘The Repentless Killology’ is vulgar, gruesome and problematic – just like the band Yesterday (October 9), the band took to social media to announce the Slaytanic Verses , which serves as a digital archive and museum chronicling the band’s stories history, from their inception in 1981 until the current day. The Slaytanic Verses museum can be seen here for free – it includes the band’s “personal archives, never-before-seen photos, instruments, art, stories straight from the band, one-of-a-kind collectibles” and more.
The digital museum will also be updated regularly, with the band writing on the site: “The collection is always growing, so come back often. It gets you when you least expect it.” A post shared by Slayer (@slayerbandofficial) Currently, the Slaytanic Verses museum showcases just under 30 entries, which include a flyer for the band’s first gig at Battle of The Bands in 1981, a collection of 1982 photos that see them in glam metal attire, their iconic Reign In Blood tour press kit and new videos and photos from their farewell tour in 2019.
Slayer’s unlikely return was confirmed earlier this year when it was revealed that they’d be headlining two September festivals – Riot Fest in Chicago (22) and Louder Than Life festival in Louisville, Kentucky (27),.
