King explained: &#8220;After Mayhem we&#8217;ll reevaluate and see if he&#8217;s any closer. We&#8217;re planning for him to come back and the door is open, because it&#8217;s his fucking gig. If he can play, Jeff Hanneman is going to fucking be here, and I&#8217;m stoked about that. I love playing with Gary [Holt, Exodus], and he&#8217;s doing a killer job, but if Jeff came back and said &#8216;I&#8217;m ready,&#8217; I&#8217;ll check him out to see that he&#8217;s ready, and off we go.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSource: Lambgoat<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/slayer\">http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/slayer<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thrash metal legends SLAYER have begun recording a new album, which they hope to complete&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28941","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28941","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=28941"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28941\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28941"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28941"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28941"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
