Dave Lombardo from Slayer is doing a song for a Disney Cartoon
This current iteration of Slayer is certainly not the one I remember fondly seeing in years past, but it’s good to see the band’s ex-drummer Dave Lombardo getting work elsewhere because arguably he’s the best drummer on the planet. That said, I couldn’t even begin to make a guesstimate as to WHICH Disney Animated Series Dave is producing songs for, but according to Metal Injection, that’s exactly what is happening:
I’ve been working on the music to a cartoon pilot for Disney and never thought It could be this much fun….Stay Tooned!!!

Would Disney have the balls to pick up an animated series featuring Dave Lombardo as part of the score? Probably not, but I still want to see it. Lord knows all of those House of Blues keep on cancelling metal shows at the last minute all because Disney sucks at everything, so I’m curious to see how this plays out.








There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
