Kerry King’s High Ambition For The Holidays

Kerrang! Magazine interviewed Slayer’s Kerry King before the holiday. He doesn’t set his goals high and he’s honest about how he’s going to spend his time during Christmas. Of course he’s not going to set up a nativity scene in his front yard and watch Charlton Heston in The Ten Commandments. He’s going to watch football and drink tequila.

“I’m gonna spend the holiday season watching American football and drinking,” he added. “I live pretty close to Mexico so it’s not too difficult to find a good bottle of tequila.”

He also mentioned that he and his wife don’t believe in Jesus, which totally caught me off guard as I’m sure it did most people (That’s sarcasm for those that don’t get that kind of thing). He calls Christmas the celebration of a “Fake birth”. Kind of funny how he says he doesn’t believe in Jesus but almost every Slayer song is about Anti-Christian beliefs. If you don’t believe in the birth of Christ then how can you write so many songs hating Jesus. Kind of contradictory if you ask me. Either way I still love Slayer and look forward to the new album.
