Oh, you thought ONE tour was enough? SUFFOCATION clearly disagrees. The New York death metal legends (who’ve been melting faces since 1989, by the way) just dropped eight extra headlining shows like they’re handing out free demo tapes. Because why not cram more blast beats into your summer? Bonus fun fact: SUFFOCATION’s 1991 debut Effigy of the Forgotten basically invented the “slam” subgenre. You’re welcome, metalheads.
Their “we’ll-tour-anywhere” strategy includes stops in places like Baton Rouge’s CHELSEA’S LIVE (bring a fan, it’s Louisiana in June) and Toronto’s THE GARRISON (maple syrup mosh pit, anyone?). But act fast – these shows are rarer than a clean vocal in a grindcore song. Snag tickets here before they’re gone.
