The Black Dahlia Murder are pleased to announce their North American 2020 tour with Bay Area thrash metal icons Testament. The near-month-long trek will commence in Phoenix, Arizona on April 20th and conclude in Anaheim, California on May 28th. Additional support will be provided by Municipal Waste and Meshiaak.
The Black Dahlia Murder will be touring in support of their upcoming new full-length with details to be unveiled in the coming days. Comments vocalist Trevor Strnad of the tour, “It is a massive honor and pleasure to be considered a worthy peer to the mighty Testament. Being a fan of theirs since childhood, I have to stop and pinch myself to see if it’s a dream or not. Luckily, I’m still awake! To say that we in The Black Dahlia Murder are excited for this undertaking would be a massive understatement. Not to mention the added pleasure of combining forces with the non-stop energy of Municipal Waste. Too fucking sick! These three entities together will be leveling venues across North America and leaving no head un-banged! This is it! The stars have aligned! Prepare to fucking thrash!”
“I’m super excited about TESTAMENT’s tour with The Black Dahlia Murder and Municipal Waste,” states Alex Skolnick. “As much as we’ve enjoyed touring with bands who emerged before us, from our own time period and slightly later eras, it will be a fresh experience to share the bill with these two, both of whom formed in the new Millennium, each with a unique perspective and a sound unlike anyone else. It’ll be a fun night of music. Don’t miss it!”
Steve Di Giorgio states, “The new album, ‘Titans Of Creation’ comes out on April 3. We are going to be on the road in the USA and Canada in April and May. We hope to see all your thrashers out there. Come out and check out the new record and show! Metal forever!”
Gene Hoglan comments, “Hey everybody! I am here to tell you that the new TESTAMENT album which drops on April 3 called ‘Titans Of Creation’ has to be one of our best records of all time. Every TESTAMENT fan out there has to pick this one up cause I believe that everybody is going to love this one like crazy. Right on! We’ll see you out on the road on all the dates we have lined. See you soon!”
TESTAMENT will be touring in support of their thirteenth album, Titans Of Creation, which was produced by Chuck Billy and Eric Peterson while Juan Urteaga of Trident Studios handled co-producing, recording and engineering. Andy Sneap was responsible for the mixing and mastering of the album. Watch the lyric video for the first single, “Night Of The Witch” here: youtu.be/cF2hIrXq2ss.
