Kerry King has announced his debut solo album From Hell I Rise, due for release on 17th May 2024 via Reigning Phoenix Music.
King, on guitar, has enlisted drummer Paul Bostaph (Slayer), bassist Kyle Sanders (Hellyeah), Phil Demmel (formerly of Machine Head) on guitar, and vocalist Mark Osegueda (Death Angel).
“I didn’t know what to think, you know, it’s Kerry King from Slayer, who I’ve heard a million times,” says the album’s producer, Josh Wilbur. “He’s a very strong presence. I wouldn’t say that Kerry has an ego, but he has confidence in himself, which is a good thing. That’s what you want in your rock stars and in your band. He never comes off as a jerk or mean guy. But he does know exactly what he wants. He doesn’t beat around the bush. He’s like, ‘I don’t want to do that, but I want to do this.’ Very direct, but it comes from a place of confidence, and not from a place of anything else. I really enjoyed working with Kerry.”
Kerry King has also released his debut single Idle Hands, check it out below.
