PODCAST: Episode 560 Slayer - The Reunion Debate Roundtable - Why Did They Unretire?

We are uniting the Illuminati of Rock and Metal experts in another Roundtable forum! Slayer will play their first of three reunion shows soon at Riot Fest, Louder Than Life and Aftershock Festival, and we will discuss the bands' controversial decision to unretire after five years! 

We also make a lot of jokes about Foreigner!
