You’ll have to forgive me for getting this post up a couple of days later than planned, but I was waiting on my sites transition to another server to complete and be checked. During the time this was happening I was unable to update anything. So here we are at the announcement of the 2013 Summer Slaughter Tour lineup and it might interest some of you while infuriating a few others. Check out the poster and let’s discuss briefly afterward.
I just saw the poster for the 2011 edition of the Summer Slaughter Tour and I figured that I would post it for the Metal Republic to check out and discuss the bands that are participating for this go round. Unless something changes for whatever reason the show will be headlined by Black Dahlia Murder and come with direct support from Whitechapel. The rest of the bands involved are Darkest Hour, Dying Fetus, Six Feet Under, As Blood Runs Black, Oceano, Fleshrot Apocalypse and the halftime show will be a special performance by Powerglove. One of these things is NOT like the other eh? Check out the poster below.
At this point in time I am not yet sure I am even going to attend because Spring has only just arrived and this is many months away. I’ve seen a number of the bands in action before but if a good number of Metal friends are planning on convening at this then it could sway my vote. What are your thoughts on the event and the participants? I’d love to hear from you all on it.
They were calling this event the “Summer Slaughter Tour” and it was most certainly that since it found a headlining Black Dahlia Murder supported by the likes of Vader, Kataklysm, & Cryptopsy. The whole affair also featured the might of The Aborted, Whitechapel, The Faceless, Despised Icon and Psycroptic and that was enough to find us at the ready with camera in hand. Readers can click the logo below to be brought to the article on the main PiercingMetal.com site. We made sure to take photos of all ten bands as well and that is something any Metal head can sink their fangs into.
A massive Metal undertaking like this was bound to be following strict time slots and we can see that lined out in the next graphic. It was pretty close to accurate barring one or two issues.

Drummer Flo Mounier (Cryptopsy) is one of the top skin bashers in Metal’s legions, we caught him warming up on some practice pads just before he was set to go on and keep fans jaws dropped open with his technical expertise.
