He was 49.Hanneman was in an area hospital when he suffered liver failure. He is survived by his wife Kathy, his sister Kathy and his brothers Michael andLarry, and will be sorely missed.

Hanneman — who in January 2011 contracted necrotizing fasciitis, likely caused by a spider bite, and has been undergoing surgeries, skin grafts and intense rehab since — spoke to U.K.'s Classic Rock magazine in December 2011 about his recovery which has seen him sit out an entire two years' worth of touring with the band.

Hanneman was kicking back in a hot tub with a couple of beers when noticed a spider bite him on the arm.

"Didn't even feel it," he said. "But an hour later, I knew that I was ill." On his way to the hospital, "I could see the flesh corrupting," he recalled. "The arm was real hot. I got to the emergency room, and thank god the nurse knew straight away what it was. By chance, although it's pretty rare, she had seen a case a little while before. At that point, I was an hour away from death."

Although the spider bite itself was not serious, it had caused bacterial infection in the deeper layers of the skin and tissues of the arm.

"Unbelievably, the doctor was a SLAYER fan," said Hanneman, "First thing he said to me was: 'First I am going to save your life. Then I am going to save your arm. Then I am going to save your career.'"

Hanneman underwent emergency surgery to remove the dead and dying tissue. The doctor was able to save the muscles and the tendons, but the guitarist had a large open wound on his arm. He spent the next two months in hospital, having extensive skin grafts and heavy doses of antibiotics to suppress the infection.

"I had to learn to walk again," Hanneman said: "I hadn't stood up for a month, apart from anything else. The skin grafts were very painful and all the muscles and tendons in the arm where very weak. That was ok though. I count myself lucky that the nurse and doctor knew right away what had happened to me, because things could have been a whole lot worse."

In a March 1, 2013 interview with MetalObsession.net's Nick Tevelis,SLAYER guitarist Kerry King stated about Jeff Hanneman's health status: "I don't have an update. I haven't seen Jeff in forever. He's always been a recluse, and he's even been more of a recluse since he's mot going on tour with us. But our manager talks to him from time to time and sees him in L.A. just randomly. But I'm far from L.A., so I'm not in that loop. But I guess he's just getting better. It's just one of those things where he can do anything in life. He could be hanging here having a good time with us. He can probably play 'South Of Heaven', but he's not gonna be playing 'Jihad', you know what I mean?! So it's just a muscle memory kind of thing, I guess, at this point."

Asked whether Jeff had been involved in the songwriting process for the new SLAYER album, Kerry said: "It's just all my stuff for now. But I did that just in case, 'cause I don't know what Jeff's intentions are. So I wanted to have SLAYER covered in case he doesn't come to the party. If he comes to the party, then we've got tons of songs."

Regarding whether contingencies had been made in case Jeff doesn't make it back to SLAYER in the near future, Kerry said: "I think Gary [Holt,EXODUS guitarist who has been filling in for Jeff for the past couple of years] is in for the long haul. I haven't really discussed it with him. But he keeps his schedule free when he knows we're on tour. And I'm pretty sure, ifJeff all of a sudden came back in June, we would probably pay Gary for freeing up his time. I don't wanna treat somebody that's bailed us out for two years badly. But if Gary played with us forever? I'm OK with that. But ifJeff got better and said, 'Hey, man, I'm ready to play,' and he came to rehearsal and showed us he was good enough, that's his show."

I expected Jeff to pull through from this situation and thought jokingly Slayer would put a song on the next album about spider venom. Although this far after the incident it didn't look likely he'd ever play again. I never expected this kind of outcome... very sad. I'll be surprised if the band continues.. ]]> Other Bands devstorm http://www.black-sabbath.com/vb/showthread.php?39818-RIP-Slayer-s-Jeff-Hanneman http://www.black-sabbath.com/vb/showthread.php?39801-Killer-Black-Sabbath-Clone-Band-Orchid&goto=newpost Mon, 29 Apr 2013 14:23:40 GMT I wanted to pass along a excellent band that is touring around your area now.

You can listen to the music if you click on bandcamp. Yes, they are a Sabbath ripoff band but a very good one. I would love to see them myself. I am anticipating the new Sabbath album but I wish it could sound more like these guys!

I heard about him through Eric Clapton and I recently bought one of his CD compilations. Johnson is one of the innovators in the Delta Blues and had some impact on early rock and roll. He was also said to have sold his soul to the devil at a crossroads in order to become talented. Anyways, if you are a fan of original blues you probably have already heard of him. If you haven't, I think you should check him out because his guitar work and vocals are truly one of a kind.

Here is a great place to get started. Also check wikipedia for some information on the crossroads legend.

I do know that the die hard Metallica fans whine about them selling out, from the Enter Sandman days to the present... or at least before Death Magnetic... when I heard DM, the album, it reminded me of the original speed metal sound of Metallica. My question is on this forum, BS.com, I hear a lot of negativaty towards Rick Rubin and Metallica's Death Magnetic album... or is it just the "production" of it? Because to my ears, Rick Rubin brought Metallica "back" to what they started out to be, before they went "mainstream" ... :confused: ]]> Other Bands Wicked Cricket http://www.black-sabbath.com/vb/showthread.php?39781-METALLICA-DM-amp-Rick-Rubin
