Exhorder’s Kyle Thomas Talks About Jeff Hanneman And Necrotizing Fasciitis [Audio]

Last night on The Grindhouse, we had 'Slayer Sunday' in honor of late Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman who passed away on May 2nd. We spoke to Kyle Thomas, former frontman of Exhorder about Jeff and his medical condition.

Kyle spoke to us about Necrotizing Fasciitis, which Jeff was suffering from due to a spider bite he contracted in early 2011 while in a friend's hot tub. Kyle also mentioned that Necrotizing Fasciitis is a rare condition that his father had contracted before and is still dealing with the effects from it.

He also spoke about his love for Slayer and how the band was a major influence for him growing up. Listen to the full interview with Kyle below:
