Watch SLAYER Play Their Second Reunion Show Of 2024

Slayer played their second reunion show of 2024 on October 10 at the the Aftershock festival in Sacramento, CA. The band’s set ran 20 songs long and perfectly mirrored their setlist from Riot Fest Chicago 2024. Still, Slayer sounded killer and Tom can totally nail that “Angel Of Death” scream at the start of the song.

Slayer‘s Aftershock performance was:

1. South Of Heaven
2. Reborn
3. Blood Red
4. Postmortem
5. Repentless
6. Payback
7. Temptation
8. Jihad
9. Seasons In The Abyss
10. Born Of Fire
11. War Ensemble
12. Hate Worldwide
13. Disciple
14. Dead Skin Mask
15. Hell Awaits
16. 213
17. Mandatory Suicide
18. Raining Blood
19. Black Magic
20. Angel Of Death

As for Slayer being reunited, it’s a low and slow burn that isn’t exactly permanent. In a recent interview with Total Guitar, Slayer guitarist Kerry King said fans shouldn’t expect more than a few festival appearances – including Europe, eventually.

“Everyone thinks Slayer are getting back together, but that couldn’t be further from the truth,” said King. “We’ve been turning down gigs ever since we stopped. This one came and I thought, ‘If we’re ever going to do one, this could be cool because it’s the five-year anniversary of our final tour.’

“We’re not going to record anymore. That final tour was definitely our final tour. This is just a reason to have some fun the guys, play a few shows and then jump back in the coffin…”
