SLAYER fan site, Slayerized.com, reports that Nike SB, in collaboration with Brooklyn Projects, present the Reign In Blood Dunk, a Nike sports shoe based on the legendary album that was released 25 years ago. The shoe will be available June 6th, 2011 at selected skate shops.

Slayer have been confirmed to play Bogota, Columbia's Palacio de los Deportes, on June 14th. This is the first officially confirmed date of their upcoming South American tour, so stay tuned for more dates coming in the next days/weeks.

Tickets will be available soon from Tuboleta.com.

CANNIBAL CORPSE guitarist Pat O'Brien will fill in for EXODUS' Gary Holt when Holt leaves the Slayer European tour to play with his own band Exodus at the Estadio Nacional in Santiago, Chile on April 4th. Holt has been filling in for Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman since the tour kicked off February 26th in Australia.
