Though it's been a long time coming, it's still mindblowing that Slayer are coming to an end. That a generation of fans won't get to experience Slayer live seems impossible. And yet, last night marked a major landmark for the band: they played their last concert ever on the continent of Europe.

The show took place at the Hanns-Martin-Schleyer-Halle in Stuttgart, Germany, with support provided by Anthrax and New Zealand thrashers Alien Weaponry. This went down after Friday's performance at Germany's infamous Wacken Open Air festival.

The band celebrated their last European concert with a massive 20-song setlist. Here's what they played:

  1. Repentless
  2. Evil Has No Boundaries
  3. World Painted Blood
  4. Postmortem
  5. Hate Worldwide
  6. War Ensemble
  7. Gemini
  8. Disciple
  9. Mandatory Suicide
  10. Chemical Warfare
  11. Payback
  12. Temptation
  13. Born of Fire
  14. Seasons in the Abyss
  15. Hell Awaits
  16. South of Heaven
  17. Raining Blood
  18. Black Magic
  19. Dead Skin Mask
  20. Angel of Death

After the show, Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante posted the following tribute to the band on his Instagram:
