Reactivated British extreme metal pioneers CARCASS will embark on the "Deathcrusher" tour alongside NAPALM DEATH, OBITUARY, VOIVOD and HEROD. This vociferous lineup will be hitting Europe this fall. CARCASS bassist/vocalist Jeff Walker comments: "Off the back of touring the U.S. with OBITUARY and Australia and New Zealand with NAPALM DEATH, we thought it would be cool to combine both tours into something special
and given that NAPALM DEATH had just toured the U.S. with VOIVOD, why not invite them also along for the ride? "CARCASS has wanted to do a Euro tour for a while now, we've been looking for the perfect opportunity, and this is IT! "Save your pennies for the heaviest tour of the fall and see it LIVE before it gets uploaded to YouTube on low-quality camera phones!"
