MACABRE – North American Summer Tour

Murder metallers MACABRE have announced a string of North American tour dates for this Summer, the latest in their ongoing Grim Scary tour supporting their latest blistering full-length Grim Scary Tales. Set to kick off in late July, MACABRE will hit the road for two weeks as direct support from gore metal outfit Exhumed, and also joined by Cephalic Carnage and Withered.

The band’s turbulent new full-length Grim Scary Tales presents the classic MACABRE style fans have come to expect, cleverly combining nursery rhyme sing-along quirkiness with ultra-tight, high-speed, gore/grind/death ingenuity. MACABRE have cleverly devised a “story book of murder” with this album, as Grim Scary Tales tracing back to the earliest recorded and most infamous mass killers.
