Amon Amarth Announce North American Tour with Carcass, Obituary and Cattle Decapitation
Right now, Swedish Viking metallers Amon Amarth are preparing for the release of their new album The Great Heathen Army. So we’re unsurprised that they’ve announced a tour to support this record…but damn, we are plenty surprised that they’ve announced a tour this sick!
For their upcoming ‘Great Heathen Tour,’ Amon Amarth have gone total brutal, enlisting an opening line-up of Florida death metal legends Obituary, UK grindcore forefathers Carcass, and Californian vegan gore metallers Cattle Decapitation. Wow, they could’ve just packed this line-up with presentable melodeath, but they went hard!
Says the band:
“North America, the Great Heathen Army is coming for you this Fall! We have been away for a long time and now we return to raid with the death metal event of the year! We will be sacking cities across the continent with our good friends Carcass, Obituary and Cattle Decapitation. We intend to bring a big show and give you a night that you won’t easily forget. Miss this at your own peril…”
