Slayer just sent metal heads around the world into a frenzy after announcing an extension to their worldwide farewell tour. Accompanying them in their Australian, and a few other, shows are the legendary Anthrax and Behemoth. For most of their other shows, the openers are the famous Lamb of God, Amon Amarth, and Cannibal Corpse. Other openers for the remaining shows are yet to be announced.
