International Day of Slayer (2026)

Today we celebrate the National Day of Slayer, originally a satire of the “National Day of Prayer,” in which we affirm the masculine values of metal in finding transcendental beauty in a world where destruction and creation battle to create a non-stagnant and self-exploring environment.

Naturally your average normie has no interest in this; the “metal” they like is warmed-over indie rock and emo, mixed with just enough jazz fusion and speed metal to seem mysterious, which they use as a token of how ironist contrarian they are, since all they care about is attaining social status so their lives seem significant (spoiler: no).

But for those who want to understand life as if it were computer code or a great painting, metal shows us how the function of reality is more important than our self-consuming individualism and its social counterpart, the endless peer pressure for edgy conformity. It develops an appreciation for the elegance of the design of the universe more than a fear for our own safety, comfort, and relevance.

Consider celebrating today:

International Day of Slayer

On June 6th, Hessians worldwide come together to do something upon which we can all agree – listening to Slayer! Finally, one of the most dismissed cultural groups in the world has a holiday to call its own. Join us in our cause to stand unified in our celebration of metal music and let us prove to the rest of society that we too have a voice.

Who is Slayer

Slayer is a band from California. Their music has come to epitomize Satanic speed metal music in the latter half of the 20th century. Their 1986 album Reign in Blood ranks as one of the single most influential metal albums of all time, typified by the modern classic “Angel of Death.”

How to Celebrate

  • Listen to Slayer at full blast in your car.
  • Listen to Slayer at full blast in your home.
  • Listen to Slayer at full blast at your place of employment.
  • Listen to Slayer at full blast in any public place you prefer.

DO NOT use headphones! The objective of this day is for everyone within earshot to understand that it is the National Day of Slayer. National holidays in America aren’t just about celebrating; they’re about forcing it upon non-participants.

Taking that participation to a problematic level

  • Stage a “Slay-out.” Don’t go to work. Listen to Slayer.
  • Have a huge block party that clogs up a street in your neighborhood. Blast Slayer albums all evening. Get police cruisers and helicopters on the scene. Finish with a full-scale riot.
  • Spray paint Slayer logos on churches, synagogues, or cemeteries.
  • Play Slayer covers with your own band (since 99% of your riffs are stolen from Slayer anyway).
  • Kill the neighbor’s dog and blame it on Slayer.

We join at the altar in the woods, raising our spirits as the fire leaps toward the skies, invoking the ancient gods who become real through our implemented belief, while ravenously anticipating the pleasures of the culling sacrifice. “The sick must die!” — Lamont Hughes
