From Flabbertits:

SLAYER has recruited Gary Holt from veteran San Francisco Bay Area thrashers EXODUS to be SLAYER's guest guitarist, temporary filling in for Jeff Hanneman who is currently recovering from surgery. Holt will immediately join Tom Araya, Kerry King and Dave Lombardo for their five-date Australian Soundwave Festival tour that begins February 26.

Hanneman underwent emergency surgery on his right arm late last month after contracting a serious infection, possibly caused by a spider bite. He is now recuperating at home and is expected to make a full recovery. He will return to the SLAYER lineup as soon as he has fully recovered.

While Hanneman's doctors were not able to definitively identify the infection's origin, they diagnosed necrotizing fasciitis, an infection caused by bacteria. According to WebMD, necrotizing fasciitis can destroy skin, fat, and the tissue covering the muscles. The disease sometimes is called "flesh-eating" bacteria.

Trust Hanneman to get the most metal deisease ever.

This would actually be really cool to see live.

That's actually something pretty rare, it's also very fucking painful!

That's really cool indeed, go on the Holt!

Hahahaha that is a mental old disease, couldn't be any more slayer!

Playing Slayer riffs has to beat playing shitty new Exodus songs.

looking forward to hearing this. as great as hanneman is it will be nice to hear the stuff with a bit of fresh playing.

Oh come on.
New Exodus is good!!
Mental disease!
I'd rather see Holt take Kings place to be honest.
Pretty tempted to go see them, but, .. mner..

New Exodus is the same riff every song. With that and Dukes' generic hardcore vocals, they've become unlistenable for me.

EXODUS have the same riffs in every song..?!
You meant Slayer right?

No, he said NEW Exodus. And he's quite right, Exhibit B is just.... no.

How about they're both shit?

Good enough

Slaxodus? Someone put these bands out of their misery now.

Give me a gun and a plane ticket and you have a deal.

You really haven't thought that plan through have you.
