“SLAUGHTERING THE MASSES” Tour Kicks Off!

Two California (USA) based metal acts, thrashers RATTLEHEAD (from LA) and DEVASTATOR (from Sacramento), are teaming up to tour the country this summer bringing their own brand of heavy metal mayhem to over 40 cities with the “SLAUGHTERING THE MASSES” tour.

Rattlehead’s frontman/guitarist Nik Baranov, who also booked the dates, comments: “We are all totally excited to get out there on the road again and meet our awesome thrash fans all over the country! We’ve been aching to play some of these cities, and now it’s finally become a reality.”

While Devastator drummer Derek Bean adds, “Better bring the neck braces and painkillers America! This being our first outing around the US, we can’t wait to get out there and cause hurtful headbanging and massive mayhemic moshing to all those who dare to witness the “slaughter”. Hope to see all the metal freaks and psychotic slam-dancers down front!”
