But there’s already another announcement on the horizon. On April 22nd, both the lineup and the tour dates are expected to be released!
In the past, the Summer Slaughter Tour was known for featuring bands from the extreme core scene as well as death metal genres. Regulars included The Faceless, Dying Fetus, and Born of Osiris, with groups like Carnifex and Cattle Decapitation also finding spots in the lineup. Whether we'll see these acts again on stage remains to be seen - it’s going to be exciting!
