Slayer has unveiled their final tour dates as a band, and they’re bringing along Primus, Ministry and Philip H. Anselmo & the Illegals for the trek

The end is really here for Slayer. The thrash metal legends have announced the final leg of their lengthy farewell world tour.

Slayer will kick off the tour beginning Nov. 2 in Asheville, North Carolina, and will perform their much-anticipated final show as a collective band Nov. 30 at the Forum in Los Angeles.

This time around, Slayer’s farewell tour will bring support from Primus, Ministry and Philip H. Anselmo & the Illegals. Tickets for the shows go on sale Friday (July 12) at 10 a.m. local time at Slayer.net.
