🦠 Cattle Decapitation Announces Massive European Summer Tour for 2025 💀

Europe, prepare for extinction-level intensity. Cattle Decapitation, the undisputed kings of eco-apocalypse deathgrind, have just announced their triumphant return to European stages for Summer 2025. The tour includes a punishing mix of headlining club shows and high-profile festival appearances—some long overdue, some completely unhinged.

Frontman Travis Ryan comments:

“It’s been too long since we hit the June fest circuit in Europe. This run finally brings us to fan-demanded fests like Download, Copenhell, and Graspop, plus long-absent stops like Nummirock, Mystic Festival, and Rock Imperium. We can’t wait to see you in the pit—or under it.”

This tour marks the continued fallout of their acclaimed album Terrasite, a sonic detonation that cemented their place atop extreme metal’s food chain. Expect songs from that record—and enough aural violence to make the Earth bleed.

🩸 HARM’S WAY & FULL OF HELL Forge Unholy Alliance for Spring 2025 Tour 💀

Prepare for impact. This May, HARM’S WAY and FULL OF HELL will detonate a co-headlining tour across North America, unleashing sonic violence alongside support from KRUELTY, JARHEAD FERTILIZER, and CLIQUE.

The Spring 2025 run kicks off May 10th in Detroit and runs through June 8th, culminating in Toronto. Along the way, HARM’S WAY will wreck stages at some of the year’s most stacked festivals—Sonic Temple, Welcome to Rockville, and Milwaukee Metal Fest. This relentless campaign also leads into a new HARM’S WAY EP, with further details to surface in the coming weeks.

“We’re building something heavier than just a tour,” said the band in a teaser. “This is about expression, destruction, and evolution.”

The tour follows the acclaimed release of Common Suffering (Metal Blade Records), an album that sees HARM’S WAY exploring grief, disorder, misanthropy, and mental collapse through some of the most diverse and punishing songwriting in their career.

Tickets are on sale now. Brace yourself.
