Talkin' Slayer, Episode 19: Touring Blood Part 4 of 4... How Dave Returned / S.L.A.Y.E.R. VS. W.A.S.P. Talkin' Slayer: A Metal Podcast and Half-@ssed Audiobook

- Music History
Today's topic is Touring Blood Part 4 of 4... How Dave Returned / S.L.A.Y.E.R. VS. W.A.S.P. Three weeks ago, Patreon supporters learned about the simmering tension between drummer Dave Lombardo and the rest of the band. Two weeks ago, the first leg of the Reign in Blood concluded under a credible death threat. Last week, Patreon pals heard about how Dave quit and was replaced by Whiplash Drummer T.J. Scaglione. This week, TJ takes to the road with Slayer, makes a mark on their sound, and rides into the sunset when -- spoilers -- Dave returns.
SHOW NOTES and fun stuff are posted over at Patreon.com/Slayerbook. This week's dope fun includes two shows with Scaglione and drums. In one, as detailed in the episode, Tom curses out a heckler.

MISSION STATEMENT
After some introductory episodes, Talkin' Slayer tells the story of the Los Angeles heavy metal institution, in chronological order: how the band happened, when things fell apart, how they put them back together, and what it all meant — no, MEANS.
After Episode Nine, Patreon supporters receive every weekly episode. Free listeners get every other episode, every other week. Learn more at Patreon.com/SlayerBook.
Every week, host D.X. Ferris presents another chapter — sometimes two or three — in the history of Slayer, from the groundbreaking group's pre-history in Chile to their hazy, fractured, mysterious end in 2019. Slayer was the first Big Four band to break up. Why? Well, it's a long story...
The Talkin' Slayer podcast program show is written, deeply researched, lightly edited, and mostly rehearsed, with some production value. This is an all-killer-no-filler podcast: The episode proper begins after roughly 60 seconds of introduction, tops. No need to skip the first 15 minutes. The music changes every week.
Ferris is an award-winning writer. He has worked for Rolling Stone, Alternative Press, The AV Club, and Decibel magazine. He is a fan. He has opinions. He is the author of something like nine books, depending how you count them. Two are about Slayer. The first one is an entire book about the classic thrash album Reign in Blood, which is part of the fairly prestigious 33 1/3 book series.
His bigger Slayer book, though, is the 2023 update of the full-on band biography "Slayer 66 & 2/3: A Metal Band Biography, POSTMORTEM Edition." (This is the third edition; it was previously known as "Slayer 66 & 2/3: The Jeff and Dave Years...."). And that book is mostly what he'll be talking about when we're talkin' Slayer. Most episodes are audio adaptations of chapters from that book. Some have original and/or bonus material.
