EXHUMED Are Coming To Japan With CANNIBAL CORPSE - Full Itinerary Available!


Relentless road demons, EXHUMED, will add to their expanding agenda of  live takeovers with a string of Japanese tour dates alongside Death Metal pioneers CANNIBAL CORPSE! The shows kick off on October 15th in Tokyo and will serve as a warm up to the band’s recently announced five-week North American Tour with Napalm Death and Municipal Waste with additional support from Vektor, Dayglo Abortions, Attitude Adjustment, Speedwolf, Martha Splatterhead’s Revenge, Repulsion and Dwarves on select dates.

Notes frontman Matt Harvey: "We are totally psyched to head back to the land of the rising sun! Japan has always been one of our favorite places to play --  the kids are amazing, the food is great, and the giant robots are just a delight! To go there with our friends in Cannibal is even cooler, and we are pumped to make sure this will be a Death Metal spectacle of epic proportions. It's been quite a while since we've been there so it will rule to trot out some new tunes in between sake bombs and bar hopping in Roppongi."

Additionally, the band plan to enter the studio at the end of the year to begin recording their sixth full-length and follow-up to 'All Guts, No Glory'. "All Guts", is still streaming in its entirety HERE. And if you missed it, check out “The Way Of Flesh” from the deluxe version of the record courtesy of GunShyAssassin at THIS LOCATION.
