Dave Lombardo has paid tribute to his Slayer bandmate Jeff Hanneman, who died on May 2nd, with a new Facebook posting and photograph.

Lombardo posted the new photo on his Facebook page and wrote, "This picture was taken at the Troubadour in Hollywood around 1982.

"Jeff was the guy that shaved his head and shared the music he was so inspired by. I enjoyed Dead Kennedy's, Circle Jerks, Black Flag and The Germs with him.

"My drumming was getting faster and Jeff was writing original songs with a punk attitude. The fusion of heavy metal and punk took over Slayer's early mediocre style, hence a new force was born.

"Thank you Jeff for your inspiring discovery of punk rock that has continued to shape my personal drumming style." See the photo here.
