Jeff Hanneman

A detailed look back at the death of Slayer's Jeff Hannemann, one of metal's most legendary musicians.

Tom Araya took us through the creation of 'Repentless' along with his feelings on what Jeff Hanneman would likely think of Slayer’s 12th full-length.

Slayer shredder Kerry King reveals that one of Jeff Hanneman's final decisions was to bring drumming phenom Paul Bostaph back into the band.

Contrary to what has been reported by various sites, Slayer's upcoming full-length will not feature any parts physically played by late guitarist Jeff Hanneman.

Thanks to all the fans who watched our video, shared our video and made their own video yelling "SLAYER!," Loudwire's #ScreamForJeff campaign was a huge success. To celebrate your participation, we're proud to share just a small percentage of the many Jeff Hanneman memorial videos posted online by Slayer superfans (watch below).

Today (Jan. 31) would have been Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman's 50th birthday, and metalheads worldwide have been paying tribute to the fallen shredder. Slayer themselves added to the mass of memorials, paying their respects to Hanneman in a heartfelt post that every fan should read.

We recently published an open letter to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, asking them to consider some of the greatest hard rock + metal acts ever for induction. But now we point our dissatisfaction at the 2014 Grammy Awards, which took place Sunday night, Jan. 26, and featured one rock and metal snub after another.

As it does every year, the Grammy Awards paid tribute to the musicians who passed away over the past 12 months with an 'In Memoriam' segment toward the end of Sunday night's ceremony. However, there was at least one glaring omission, as there was no mention of late Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman.
