The internet may have discovered KERRY KING's new post-SLAYER band name
26 July 2022Enterprising internet sleuths think they may have discovered the name of former SLAYER guitarist Kerry King's new band, and it's a name that would definitely resonate with SLAYER fans.
As The PRP reports, King registered an LLC company in his then home state of Nevada back in March 2017: the guitarist has since relocated to New York. The name registered by King was BLOOD REIGN, an obvious allusion to SLAYER's 1986 masterpiece Reign In Blood.
This name, could, of course, be one King created to for other business affairs, but the fact that he registered it ahead of SLAYER announcing their farewell tour has led some to believe that this will be the name of the 58-year-old's new musical venture.
King revealed in 2021 that he has more than two records' worth of music written for the band. Speaking to Metal Hammer, he says that SLAYER fans won’t be disappointed when it comes to the new music.
While King was cagey about who else will be in the band, he confirmed the involvement of former SLAYER drummer Paul Bostaph.
“We just started rehearsing and the only person I can give away is Paul because I took him from Slayer and we work very well together,” says King. “We didn’t start rehearsing until the end of March, and that was the first time since that last Slayer show at the end of 2019 that me and Paul finally got into a room together.”
King also talked about his desire to play live, suggesting he originally planned to tour with the new project before the pandemic.
“Have I been dragging my feet? Yeah, because I wanted this [pandemic] shit to get sorted. I won’t be dragging my feet much longer."
