The freshly updated metal tome "Slayer 66 2/3: A Metal Band Biography… Or, How F*kin' Slayer Kicked F*kin' @ss" is now available as an audiobook. For the 2025 holiday season, the audiobook is available exclusively at Bandcamp.com.
Award-winning journalist D.X. Ferris reads his book, which he updated, expanded, and revised after SLAYER's somewhat surprising reunion.
The audiobook's run time is 36.5 hours. It includes 12 bonus chapters that are not included in the paperback. The final three chapters cover the band's 2025 reunion season. SLAYER's year ended with a festival at Hersheypark, Pennsylvania. The Los Angeles thrash band headlined over EXODUS, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, POWER TRIP, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES and KNOCKED LOOSE.
"The book is still current," explains Ferris. "Think of the bonus chapters as European B-sides."
Ferris's book first appeared in 2013, months after the shocking death of SLAYER co-founder, co-guitarist, and chief songwriter Jeff Hanneman. At the time, the title was "Slayer 66 2/3: The Jeff & Dave Years".
