SLAYER reveal ‘Repentless’ Album Artwork; Title Track To Get Digital Global Release Friday, June 19th!

Today, SLAYER unveil the album artwork for their 11th studio album, Repentless due out 11/09/15 (Nuclear Blast). The artwork was created by Brazilian artist Marcelo Vasco in collaboration with the bands Tom Araya and Kerry King.
We had a number of submitted ideas for the cover artwork, said Araya. And we felt Marcelos was the best. We made some suggestions and the result is an awesome album cover.
The band also announces that the album’s title and first official track will be available digitally virtually everywhere (Amazon, iTunes, Google) around the globe this Friday, June 19.
’Repentless’ is my Jeff tribute, said SLAYERs Kerry King. I call it the ‘HannemAnthem.’ Its my perspective of Jeffs perspective, its what I think…if Jeff wrote a song for himself, ‘Repentless’ would be it.
Arrogance, violence, world in disarray
Dealing with insanity every fuckin day
I hate the life, hate the fame, hate the fuckin scene
Pissing match of egos, fuck their vanity*
