Thrash metal icons Slayer will head out on another leg of its ongoing world tour — the seventh leg overall — this fall. The dates were revealed on Tuesday along with an explosive tour promotion video.

Along for the madness on the Final Campaign dates will be special guests Primus, Ministry and Philip H. Anselmo and the Illegals, a project helmed by former Pantera and Down vocalist Phil Anselmo. Here’s that video teaser:

Via the press release:

Slayer’s Final World Tour began on May 10, 2018 with the band’s intention to play as many places as possible, to make it easy for the fans to see one last Slayer show and say goodbye. By the time the 18-month trek wraps on November 30, the band will have completed seven tour legs plus a series of one-off major summer festivals, performing more than 140 shows in 30-countries and 40 U.S. states.
