LAMB OF GOD to Open for SLAYER on Final Tour this Spring/Summer
Internationally-renowned heavy metal legends Lamb of God have announced that they will support fellow legends Slayer on the first leg of Slayer’s final North American tour.
Internationally-renowned heavy metal legends Lamb of God have announced that they will support fellow legends Slayer on the first leg of Slayer’s final North American tour. The 26 date tour will start on May 10th and will also include Anthrax, Behemoth, and Testament. It will include stops in many major cities, including Toronto, Chicago, Detroit and many Canadian cities.
Randy Blythe of Lamb of God commented, “If you are lucky enough to be invited to play even just once with living legends like Slayer, it’s an incredible honor. Slayer gave Lamb of God our very first two overseas shows. Slayer has subsequently taken us on several full-length tours, both at home and abroad. The guys in Slayer and their crew have also always been very, very cool to our band. It is irrefutable that Slayer helped create the genre of aggressive metal, and all modern bands of that ilk owe them a huge debt – I know we do. To be asked to be a part of their final tour – well, it just makes you stop and realize just how lucky you are. Hail Slayer! We’ll see you on the road…”
