Slayer have announced the North American leg of their last-ever tour.

Tom Araya, Kerry King, Paul Bostaph and Gary Holt announced their final tour yesterday – and they’ve now revealed a list of 26 dates which will take place throughout May and June.

As previously reported, they’ll be joined on the road by Anthrax, Lamb Of God, Behemoth and Testament.

A statement reads: “Slayer announces that it will do one last concert tour around the globe to thank their fans for all of their support over the years, for making the last three-and-a-half decades so packed with good times and unforgettable experiences, and will then move on.”

Tickets will go on general sale from 10am local time on Friday (January 26) via the band’s website.
