Last week, Summer Slaughter announced the lineup for this summer's go around, and it's rather extreme:
Morbid Angel,
Dying Fetus,
The Faceless,
Thy Art Is Murder,
Goatwhore,
Origin,
Decrepit Birth,
Within The Ruins
Fallujah
It's almost a completely different vibe than last year's lineup, but that's what metal festivals are all about. Today, the routing surfaced thanks to Origin spoiling the surprise on their Facebook page:
07/17 San Francisco, CA – The Regency Ballroom
07/18 Santa Ana, CA – The Observatory
07/19 Los Angeles, CA – House of Blues
07/20 Phoenix, AZ – Nile Theater
07/21 El Paso, AZ – Tricky Falls
07/22 Albuquerque, NM – Sunshine Theater
07/23 Denver, CO – Summit
07/25 Houston, TX – House of Blues
07/26 Austin, TX – Scoot Inn
07/27 Dallas, TX – GMBG
07/29 St. Petersburg, FL – State Theater
07/30 Atlanta, GA – The Masquerade
07/31 Knoxville, TN – The International
08/01 Cleveland, OH – Agora Theatre
08/02 Chicago, IL – Mojoes
08/03 Minneapolis, MN – Skyway Theatre
08/05 Milwaukee, WI – The Rave
08/06 Detroit, MI – Crofoot Ballroom
08/07 Niagara Falls, NY – Rapids Theatre
08/08 New York, NY – Irving Plaza
08/09 Worcester, MA – The Palladium
08/10 Philadelphia, PA – The Trocadero
08/12 Springfield, VA – Empire (no Morbid Angel)
The routing is a bit different this year, compared to previous years, with the fest playing a few extra west coast dates, skipping Seattle and wrapping up in Philly. I'm just glad there is a New York date! No word on ticket sale dates but you can get the latest on the official Summer Slaughter website.
