Kerry is right he met Slash and the rest of Gun's in 1988 a pic is circulated around with Kerry,Tom and Gun's n Roses and James and Lars from Metallica
Ha! ...I still record with cassette too. My daughter put audacity on my laptop and I've never figured it out. Waiting for recording software layed out like a cassette recorder. All that extra college boy studio technician crap is confusing, unnecessary, and kills my music boner before I have a chance to pluck a note. Just a plain basic recorder is all I need...I'll hire the studio nerd when I need one. Why is it so damn hard to make something simple? I have money...give me something to buy damnit.
The 81 and 85 are ideal. I have an 81 in my Jackson and I love it. Maybe someday I’ll upgrade to both 81 and 85 but it’s already got passive pickups as well as active. And I think I d have to have extensive work to add the 85.
"Hopefully there'll be a new Black Sabbath." Slayer WAS the new Black Sabbath. They didn't sound like Black Sabbath but, they CRUSHED everyone else around & influenced metal just like Sabbath did in the 1970's.
Looks like Kerry has taken to dying his beard black. Maybe he's just covering up the "grey", after all, none of us are getting any younger, lol...🤘💥🤘💥🤘💥🤘💥😉
Shredding at 300bpm is not enough to be a guitar player if your songs suck, or when all the songs on your record, or even all of your records sound dull, repetitive and uninspired. Unfortunately even the not so new metal bands, like Lamb of God, or Slipknot, or FFDP, or Warbringer are no match for those well established in the 80s. They had no impact compared to veterans of the genre. The only newer thrash metal band nearly as relevant as Slayer, Sepultura, Exodus, Overkill or Testament were Lich King. Unfortunately they're not active anymore. And boy, that band delivered.
I like his riffs and overall rhythm playing, but his leads leave a lot to be desired, and he even attested to that. How he can be such a solid rhythm guitarist and a shitty lead guitarist at the same time is an interesting juxtaposition.
Truth is there will never be another Black Sabbath or AC/DC, another Priest, Maiden, Slayer, Overkill, Pantera, Queensryche, another Megadeth. I'm not pessimistic by any stretch of the imagination, but the present speaks for itself enough to forsee the future of metal music. No brilliant compositions, no fresh inspired riffs, as for marvelously crafted memorable guitar solos... I don't even believe that it will ever be the case.
This would be a lot better without the constant music interrupting. Just keep it cool, Kerry looks and sounds good and happy to be in Denmark, home of the brilliant Laudrup brothers
I’ve never been into the Flying V, they are nice definitely but not my style I prefer Jackson performer or Ibanez and I have both. Les Paul is bad ass too I have a custom Peter Frampton model and it was built extremely well
King is too young to stop playing now he should be able to carry on as slayer if he wanted to. He started this slayer thing .renember he had the dream then met hannamen
@claytonschiller8664 What's that supposed to mean? Are you saying you see feminity in this guy. Is he your type? You wanna take him for a night out on the town for dinner, then tryin' to see if you can get lucky after? What about this guy makes you see a "Queen'? Ohhh! I get it. Your just an immature little kid making 2nd grader jokes that the rest of the world aren't finding amusing. But we let it go because after all, You're just a little snot nose diaper stinkin' little kid....So, O.K. haha😕lol🙄 Thats funny. Now, run along. Isn't it past your bedtime by now?
I think this is the first time I’ve seen Kerry on video since like 2019. He’s looking well. He’s looked the same since like 2004 lmao
This is at least a 10-year-old interview, near the end he says that Slayer will play for another couple of years...
It's before 2019 anyway.
14:48 - ironic, SLAYER tapped out before AC/DC and PRIEST
Is that Lars interviewing Kerry? lol Just kidding!
King Diamond Mercyful Fate Hell ya !!!

Shout out to Cut Corner Records in Lexington KY! Only place you could find metal and punk back in the day.

I hear you. Likely you have a cell phone with you to instantaneously record your ideas. Then give me a holler when you need audio nerd recording!
Great interview dude. Bravo!.💪🏻
Hell. YES! Thank-you man🙌🤘🙌

Still my all time favorite guitar player!
Beard dye on point 🤘🏼

I would LOVE to hear Highway Star SLAYER STYLE..that would be the shit ! I can already hear Araya screaming in the begining..

Warm!
Don't care for anything Slayer has produced after 1994 but I wish Kerry the very best - on is good days he was ferocious and unique.
Warm
Music 😂
