Slayer drummer working on solo album

By | Published on Wednesday 14 October 2009

Slayer’s drummer Dave Lombardo is currently working on a solo album, with a view to releasing it next year, he has revealed.

Speaking to Classic Rock, Lombardo said: “It will showcase a very different side of me. If you’re a metalhead then you may not appreciate a lot of what’ll be on it. It’s really world music with an edge. And an opportunity for me to reveal a different side to my playing – much more avant-garde. It won’t have any singing, or other instruments apart from drums and percussion. It’s my vanity project, I suppose. I’ve been working on it for a while, and hope to get it finished soon”.

Slayer are currently touring to promote their latest album, ‘World Painted Blood’.
