Dave Lombardo confirmed in an interview that he is "sick" of answering questions about his former band Slayer and is also upset about how his comments about the band have been taken out of context.

Lombardo made the comments while speaking to the Hanger 19 podcast about his current group Philm. Here are the excerpts from the interview where the Slayer topic was discussed (transcribed by Loudwire.

About Slayer questions: "How sick am I? I'm pretty sick of it," He said laughing. "Especially when it gets misconstrued in so many different ways. Yeah, it's pretty annoying, but you have to understand that they journalists, they're fans and they've listened to your music for years.

"And what other fans, and the public or the Internet, what they don't understand is that they're interested in these questions because they've followed the band. So you've gotta have some kind of understanding of why this is in the press."

His reaction to how his comments are taken out of context in the media: "Next thing you know, you look like a bad guy, like you're talking s-t, and, actually, no, I'm just answering the f-ing question in the most honest way. You can't win, so that's why I kind of shy away from those questions and focus on my new band."
