Well, if you're not all rocked out post-Download, here's a scary twosome to look out for - though you'll have to wait until Sep. Slipknot and Slayer are touring together under the 'Unholy Alliance' banner.
Confirming the tour Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor told CMU: "Two bands, two tribes and one tour that is going to lay waste to the entire continent of Europe. The ashes left behind will be made up of clenched fists and satisfied smiles. As of right now, no-one is safe. Be ready!"
