Slayer and Megadeth tour Australia in October 2009


Talk about a mind-blowing double-header. Slayer and Megadeth – two of the bands that defined the thrash/metal genre – will perform together for the first time ever in Australia and New Zealand when they co-headline six shows in October.
Both Slayer and Megadeth have recently emerged from the recording studio with brand new albums – Slayer’s World Painted Blood, due out later this year, and Megadeth’s Endgame set for a September 11th release.
The bands will be well-warmed up for the Australian/New Zealand dates, as they co-headlined the “Canadian Carnage” trek in June, marking the first time they’ve shared a stage in more than 15 years. According to various Canadian press outlets: “It was a night of thrash impossible to trash…” “Tales about war, death, destruction, Satan, aliens and serial killers have never been so much fun…” “The two heavy metal heavyweights …went head-to-head on a level playing field. Both bands brought their A game. And the results were anything but pretty – unless you include pretty freakin’ loud and pretty freakin’ awesome.”
In related news, Lamb Of God, Devil Driver and Shadows Fall are touring in December.

Looking forward to it. Never seen Megadeth, have seen Slayer just the once and they were awesome.
I'll be thrashing out at Brisbanes Riverstage for sure.

Can anybody find ticket info for the Brisbane show? I can only find the Perth gig listed on the ticketmaster website...

Seen Megadeth a few years back. I pretty much covered the mosh in jizz when they played Holy Wars. Shame that there was no Marty, but Dave is still the man.

Slayer, well, I'm not a massive fan. Love the song Raining Blood, but apart from that there isn't a lot I get excited by.

I'll probably go if the tickets are reasonably priced.
