From The Press Release
Florida death metal pioneers MASSACRE, who launched Back From Beyond (their first studio album in almost 20 years) earlier this year worldwide via Century Media Records, have recently announced high-profile tours through North America and now also Europe in order to continue promoting the acclaimed release. See below for a comment from the band about the upcoming runs, which feature MASSACRE alongside DEATH (DEATH TO ALL), OBITUARY and RIVERS OF NIHIL in North America and DEATH (DTA), ABYSMAL DAWN and LOUDBLAST in Europe:
“MASSACRE is very excited to be part of the Swamp Leper Stomp Tour 2014 & the DEATH (DTA Tours) Symbolic European tour 2015. This is a great opportunity for us to bring Florida Death Metal to the masses and show people what MASSACRE is all about. Both tours have great line-ups and the fans get to see some awesome bands!!! With the history that Rick Rozz and I have with DEATH, we feel this will only add to the excitement and atmosphere of the shows.” – Terry Butler / MASSACRE
