So bass-wielding frontman Tom Araya understandably feels some apprehension about Slayer's forthcoming, still-untitled disc, which they're still working on in Los Angeles with producer Josh Abraham (Staind, Velvet Revolver).
The CD should surface in late July, he said, and feature the tracks "Cult," "Catalyst," "Catatonic" and "Jihad." At this stage, seven weeks into recording, five of the album's 11 tracks are finished and about to be put through the mixing process.
Slayer still need to put the finishing touches on the remaining songs, but Araya expects the band will be finished with everything in the next week or so.

 Tom Araya | View the Music Artists Biography Online | VH1.com

In a fairly recent interview with Denver Westword, Tom Araya--bassist, lyricist, and vocalist for Slayer--decided to share a teensy bit of Christian doctrine (surprise, surprise!).
