Official high-quality online streams of three new Slayer tracks are available at BraveWords.com - head to the left-hand-side of the site to launch the KnuckleTracks Online Audio Player and to hear 'World Painted Blood', 'Hate Worldwide' and 'Psychopathy Red'.

New Amazon on-sale pre-orders for World Painted Blood are below:

World Painted Blood will be released on Tuesday, November 3rd in North America, and on Monday, November 2nd to the rest of the world. World Painted Blood will initially ship with four special collector's edition CD covers. Each of the four covers will display one-fourth of a continental map illustrated with human skulls and bones; when placed together, the four images form a complete and grisly map of the world.

All four of the initial CD packages will include a special blood-red, see-through top panel with the map displayed beneath it.

The World Painted Blood Deluxe Edition will have its own special layout of the map cover art and will be in a double-digipak housed in a blood-red, see-through plastic sleeve. The Deluxe Edition will include the World Painted Blood CD, the Playing With Dolls DVD, a 20-minute animated graphic novel featuring music from the album (including part of a new non-album song), and an expanded booklet.
