Songs About God and Satan - Part 2: An Interview With Slayer's Tom Araya

What else did Kerry tell you?

KNAC.COM: Pretty much what he always seems to say, that they “sound like Slayer songs.”

ARAYA: (Laughs) Well that’s about all I can tell you, too. It’s a Slayer record. People won’t be disappointed. We’re not going to come out with something completely different. And I don’t want that to mean that this one sounds just like this, that or the other, but the minute you hear it, you’ll recognize it as Slayer. It encompasses everything we’ve done. And usually ever record encompasses everything we’ve done, with something new added to it. And this one isn’t any different.

There’s one song that has a new element for a Slayer record and somebody yesterday was asking, “Well, what is it?” And I’m not gonna tell you, when you hear it it’ll be like, “Ah, that’s what he was talking about.” It’s pretty obvious. It’s Slayer, but you’ll realize that it’s something new for us.
