Quote
Slayer guitarist and founding member Jeff Hanneman died earlier today of liver failure. He was 49.

The band's longtime publicist issued the following statement today:

"Slayer is devastated to inform that their bandmate and brother, Jeff Hanneman, passed away at about 11AM this morning near his Southern California home.  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 and Larry, and will be sorely missed."

Hanneman co-founded the thrash metal greats with Kerry King in 1981; their breakthrough came in 1986 with the landmark album "Reign in Blood." Hanneman wrote or co-wrote the set's standout tracks, "Angel of Death" and "Raining Blood."

I have heard of them, never listened to they're music. 49 is way too young to go. R.I.P.

Could it be spider related?

Naaa, not in that genre atleast. Slayer has been pretty square the last decade or so.

very possible.  my dad was bit by a spider 18-24 months ago.  he's been battling all sorts of complications from that flesh eating stuff.  It'll be fine for a few months, then suddenly his whole leg will be swollen and drained again.  spider bites are serious business.

Sad news.
I remember watching a recent interview with Kerry and he said that the doctor basically told Jeff that death was near.
R.I.P. and a huge farewell to one of the icons of Thrash - he really knew his stuff.
I will always remember him in his 86 - 88 prime... the Feldmarschall of Thrash.

Shit. One of the biggest losses ever in thrash metal. He will be missed.
