Slayer to make mayhem in Cork

Joining, er, Bell X1 as one of the headliners of the Live At The Marquee series of concerts, the Californian thrash group will bring their celebrated brand of metal to Cork on June 26.
The band, whose seminal albums include 2003's Reign In Blood and 1994's Divine Intervention, most recently released Christ Illusion, which was banned in India for being offensive to Christians.
Intrigued? Tickets for the show go on sale on Friday 16 February, at €45 a pop.
