My Thoughts: Now I missed the first go round of this tour that brought out all the different guest guitar players and a few different vocalists and while that made me a little mad inside, I did catch the second go round and found it to be quite the fantastic thing. I admitted when I was writing up that event story that the music of Death escaped me at its time but I learned to appreciate it very much when the need for the heaviest of the heavy along with a love for the technical came to pass in my own musical interests. Pairing this headlining act up with the also legendary Obituary is going to crush people and now that both Massacre and Rivers Of Nihil are participating, well, you attending fans best prepare yourself for some well-executed brutality. What are your thoughts on this particular package? Does it interest you at all? Let’s discuss in the comments.

Fans can keep up with the touring package by visiting these bands official websites and of course their varied Social Networks. I’ve embedded links for you to find all of this stuff a little easier.
