Summer Slaughter 2008 Announced!

[...AndTimeBegan]

THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, KATAKLYSM, VADER, CRYPTOPSY, WHITECHAPEL and five other bands will team up for the second Summer Slaughter tour, set to kick off June 20. Exact cities and dates will be announced soon.

Pretty sweet lineup so far. Whitechapel is like Job For a Cowboy 2.0 but oh well. 4/5 good bands so far.

I'm so-so on BDM and Whitechapel sounds dire (JFaC? erk), but Kataklysm, Vader and the mighty Cryptopsy kick all sorts of ass. Flo Mournier!

 

[Dolamite S. Biffle]

I like Kataklysm if I am on the guest list I will go but otherwise the other five bands need to do somethign for me.

TBDM is a fun show and a fun band. Not to be taken too seriously. I'm so so on Kataklysm but Vader and Cryptopsy is worth it alone!




I do wanna see who the other bands are first though.

 

[Perditions Ghost]

Kataklysm, Vader, and Cryptopsy ensure that I'll be there. I don't like what's been said about Whitechapel but I guess I'll give them a proper listen later. Black Dahlia Murder does nothing for me, though - seen them live a few times and listened to them on CD a few times, but it just does NOTHING for me.

Of the five other bands, I believe The Funeral Pyre should open.

I'm curious and wary of the 'new' Cryptopsy. It seems a new direction has been taken-- has anything come out musically from them yet?

 

[Azrael LenGraden]

Damn... by the title of this thread I thought this was Slaughter the band...








Just kidding

Vader, Kataklysm, BDM, and old Cryptopsy are pretty cool. I'll hit this one up.

Aborted and Psycroptic (sp?) are also on this tour.

What?!?! Where did you hear this? I'd give a nut to see Psycroptic.

A friend of mine works for a local promoter. He mentioned the list of bands that were on the tour. I remember Aborted & Psycroptic because another one of my friends got very excited hearing that he might get to see them this summer.

I think I remember Born Of Osiris was on the list as well.

 

[Purveyor Of Evil]

KATAKLYSM and VADER sealed the deal for me already!

 

[zedowns]

If Psycroptic is on this bill...

HOLY
SHIT.

 

[rms]

Vader is what is tickling my fancy..

 

[The Fiddler]

Is this tour being sponsored by Ricola Throat Lozenges or Gillete Razors?

 

[Perditions Ghost]

ABORTED?

HOLY SHIT!

Not funny, GTFO.

I also heard that Psycroptic is on this tour but didn't want to say anything.

 

[dcowboys311]

On Necrophagist's website, there is a blurb that says "Meanwhile Necrophagist will start writing the follow-up to "Epitaph" and hopefully release it by Summer Slaughter 2008. See you there... " I hope they're on the tour again too although that release is from last July.

 

[caex]

I will be going to this, and will find some way to ignore the horrible band that is Black Dahlia Murder.

 

[dcowboys311]

BDM is pretty cool. I'm not sure why they get so much hate.
