Behemoth, Watain, The Devil's Blood & In Solitude Reveal North American Tourdates!

This April, Decibel Magazine is bring the North American Metal Maniacs the "Decibel Magazine Tour"! The tour will not only feature the return of the mighty Behemoth to North America, but also Metallic titans such as Swedish Black Metal meisters Watain. Support will come from The Devil's Blood and In Solitude.

This not-to-be-missed tour is scheduled to begin in early April, and it will be a 26-date tour. We can all agree that this tour will be extra special, since it will be Behemoth's first U.S. tour since vocalist/guitarist Adam "Nergal" Darski's well-documented battle with — and triumph over—leukemia. This is what he had to say about this kickass tour.

"Considering the fact that we'll be sharing the stage with the most evil and uncompromising bands around — Watain, The Devil's Blood and In Solitude — this already makes it a legendary bill that you can't miss out on! Watch out. We won't show up — we will ARRIVE with all the strength and might!"

Gruesome visual evidence of this tour package is forthcoming: We went all the way to Sweden to capture the frontmen and women of all four bands for our special Decibel Magazine Tour cover story, streeting in April. "Considering the fact that we'll be sharing the stage with the most evil and uncompromising bands around—Watain, the Devil's Blood and In Solitude—this already makes it a legendary bill that you can't miss out on!" promises Nergal. "Watch out. We won't show up—we will ARRIVE with all the strength and might!"

It only makes sense that Decibel would present a tour package with a sense of integrity, purpose and history. "It is a joint force of artistic adversity and sinister creativity," assures Watain frontman Erik Danielsson, "which makes me think of the glorious days when bands like Venom, Metallica, Exodus and Slayer toured together like a great middle finger raised towards their sheep-minded contemporaries."
