American Carnage Tour Tickets – Megadeath, Slayer and Testament go on the Road
It’s a good time to be a dedicated fan of metal music, with some of the biggest acts in the genre currently going on tour. The Big Four—Metallica, Megadeath, Slayer and Anthrax—are due to perform in Europe in the near future, resulting in one of the biggest mash-ups of metal in modern history.
Of course, that doesn’t do much good if you’re over here in the U.S. But American metal fans have a lot to look forward to, as well. The American Carnage Tour is coming up this summer, bringing together three major acts: Megadeath, Slayer and Testament. The tour begins in August and will end over Labor Day weekend. More than 26 shows are scheduled in cities across the U.S., so expect things to heat up at the tail end of summer. They are also going to be hitting up Europe starting in July.
Early in 2010, metal fans were worried that some of the tour’s dates were going to be cut from the schedule when Slayer’s burly frontman, Tom Araya, was forced to get back surgery. It wasn’t anything major, but apparently Araya suffers from Cervical Radiculopathy, a condition that may have been brought on by his trademark hair-swinging during shows. Fortunately, the condition was easily treated, and Araya is ready to get back on the stage.
Part of the appeal of this tour is undoubtedly the fact that two headliners are members of the Big Four. Megadeath, fronted by Dave Mustaine (who was himself a former member of Metallica), rose to prominence in the ’80s as one of metal’s most infamous acts. The band has gone through at least 20 members so far, but Mustaine has always been front and center, controlling the direction of the band. They were always considered pioneers of the thrash metal movement, and over a multiple-decade career, have released countless albums packed with hits.
Slayer is also a big name in metal music. In fact, they may rival Megadeath in terms of name recognition. Slayer’s debut album, Reign in Blood, is known as one of the definitive heavy metal releases of the ’80s, and one look at its pentagram-and-demon-adorned album cover will tell you why. This was a band that pushed boundaries with relish and challenged notions about how loud, fierce, and frankly scary metal could be.
Enter into this mix a lesser-known but still historically crucial metal band from Berkeley, Calif. Testament came up about the same time as Megadeath and Slayer, rocking just as hard and earning two Top 40 albums in the U.K. Their debut album, The Legacy, still stands as a prime example of late ’80s thrash metal. Seeing them alongside bands like Megadeath and Slayer makes for quite an intense experience.
Altogether, the bands Megadeath, Slayer and Testament are three metal acts that no self-respecting metal fan would want to miss out on seeing.
