From Hell I Rise is the upcoming debut solo album by Slayer guitarist Kerry King, set for release on May 17, 2024, through Reigning Phoenix Music.[1] It will be King's first album since disbanding Slayer in 2019, and its contributors include Mark Osegueda of Death Angel on vocals, former Vio-lence and Machine Head guitarist Phil Demmel, Hellyeah bassist Kyle Sanders, and Slayer and former Testament, Forbidden and Exodus drummer Paul Bostaph.[1]
Background and recording[edit]
Work on From Hell I Rise began as early as 2020, with King saying in an interview on the Dean Guitars YouTube channel that August that he had "more than two records' worth of music".[3] King's Slayer bandmate and drummer Paul Bostaph stated that same month he and King were working on a new project that would "sound like Slayer without it being Slayer — but not intentionally so."[4]
Progress on the album remained slow within the next three years. King claimed in a January 2024 interview with Metal Hammer magazine that it had been "done since June" 2023, with production handled by Josh Wilbur.[1][5] About five months after its completion, King hinted that he was going to release the debut album by his new project in 2024;[6] this project was later revealed to be his solo debut album.[7] Details of the album, including its title, release date and lineup, were announced on February 5, 2024, and its first single "Idle Hands" was premiered on the same day.[1]
