Slayer Hits the Studio. New Album in 2006

According to a band spokesperson, US thrash gods SLAYER will "go into the studio MAYBE December, possibly January to start recording" their long-awaited followup to 2001's God Hates Us All. The album will feature original drummer Dave Lombardo who rejoined the band in early 2002. The album will surface on American Recordings' new home, Warner Bros. Records, sometime in 2006.

Slayer's last studio album, God Hates Us All, was released on September 11, 2001. How's that for frightening!
