The Summer Slaughter tour is set to return this July and August for a trek across North America, and the wait is almost over for their lineup reveal! According to tour organizers, the announcement will happen on April 22. So stay tuned!
In true Summer Slaughter fashion, festival organizers recently began teasing the lineup with flags of where each band is from. In order from top left to bottom right, they are:
- Illinois, US
- Ontario, CAN
- Alabama, US
- Georgia, US
- Slovenia
- France
- Pennsylvania, US
- Denmark
So there you go – no Necrophagist reunion this time around, as there's no German flag. Outside the flags and the announcement date, all we know so far that is that organizers have confirmed the Summer Slaughter will come back in July and August, and that the accompanying Slaughter Survivors tour will not return.
"Summer Slaughter at its peak was such a force it even had a spin off tour to help keep developing the scene," wrote organizers at the time. "Bad news – Slaughter Survivors won’t be back this year. Good news – SUMMER SLAUGHTER 2024 IS OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED. Line up and dates coming soon"
The Summer Slaughter Tour ran regularly between 2007 and 2019 and featured headlining spots from bands like Cannibal Corpse, The Black Dahlia Murder, Dying Fetus, Cattle Decapitation, Necrophagist, Decapitated, and way more.
