Last summer, metal icons Slayer brought their farewell tour to Blossom and delivered a blistering set. The band has been on the road ever since, and Leg Three: Europe just concluded this past Saturday.

Earlier today, Slayer announced the dates of Leg Five: North America. The tour will feature opening acts Lamb of God, Amon Amarth and Cannibal Corpse, and it comes to the Covelli Centre in Youngstown on May 20.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday.
