TIME TO SLAUGHTER: The metal masses have much to look forward to this summer as the line-up for the 2009 Summer Slaughter tour was released just a few days ago. Relapse Records' Necrophagist will be sharing the headlining spot with Nuclear Blast's Suffocation. Plus a myriad of support for the tour will also include Ensiferum, Darkest Hour, Winds Of Plague, Dying Fetus, Born Of Osiris, Origin, Beneath The Massacre, After The Burial, Decrepit Birth, and Blackguard. Will they be playing in a city near you? We're not quite sure just yet as tourdates have yet to be announced, but continue to check back on Noisecreep for continuing updates as it develops.
FRANCE INVADES THE US: As well we've also received word that Prosthetic Records' Gojira will be gearing up in early May for a headlining tour with The Chariot and Car Bomb. Starting in Springfield, Viriginia on May 1st, the tour will run until the end of the month making its final stop in Hollywood, California on May 24th.
STICKING TO THEIR GUNS: And the hits just keep on coming!
