WWE superstar and former World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest’s theme song “Rise For The Night” featuring SLAYER’s Kerry King is officially able on all major streaming services.
King plays guitar on the track, which debuted in November during a broadcast of WWE Monday Night Raw. Priest is a heavy metal fan, citing Metallica and Ozzy Osbourne as the first bands that hooked him on the genre.

Kerry King and his solo band – drummer Paul Bostaph (Slayer), bassist Kyle Sanders (Hellyeah), guitarist Phil Demmel (Machine Head), and vocalist Mark Osegueda (Death Angel) – will hit the road for the twenty-eight date “North American Headline Tour 2025”. With Municipal Waste as Special Guest and Alien Weaponry supporting, the tour is set to launch in San Francisco on January 15, and wrap at House of Blues in Las Vegas on February 22. Tickets can be purchased here. The complete itinerary is below.
“Getting back on the road for the first time in five years wasn’t exactly like riding a bike, that’s for sure,” King acknowledged. “I’ve never had that much time off, but the first tours with my new band – in the UK and Europe, and then in America with Lamb of God and Mastodon – were all total blasts. We’ll be headlining on this next tour, so we’re playing a longer set than we did with Lamb of God and Mastodon. And we might put an extra Slayer song into the set and learn a cover song or two.”
King and his band also announced their “European Tour 2025”. The dates kick off on July 29 in Frankfurt, Germany, and are currently scheduled to wrap up on August 19 in Krakow, Poland.
