Florida death metal vets, Morbid Angel, were scheduled to headline the "Devastation On The Nation" tour, launching on November 15. Morbid Angel have dropped off the bill, with I Am Morbid stepping in to replace them.
A message from organizers states: "The highly anticipated Devastation On The Nation Tour presented by Vox&Hops Metal Podcast kicks off in less than three weeks, and we’ve got an important update to share!
"Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, Morbid Angel will no longer be joining us on this tour. Stepping up to take the headlining spot is none other than I Am Morbid! Fronted by David Vincent, the original Morbid Angel vocalist and bassist, the band includes Morbid Angel’s original and legendary drummer Pete Sandoval, and guitarists Bill Hudson (Doro, Northtale) and Richie Brown (Terrorizer, ex-Trivium).
"Get ready to be blown away as I Am Morbid delivers an unforgettable set, performing classic tracks from the Vincent & Sandoval era, including fan favorites from Altars of Madness, Blessed Are The Sick, Covenant, and Domination."
David Vincent adds: "A U.S. tour for I Am Morbid is long overdue. We are looking forward to bringing the old school morbid legacy to our friends across the nation!”.
Organizers conclude: "Don’t miss out on this epic tour—tickets are selling fast for all 25 shows, so grab yours now and prepare for a night of relentless metal madness!'
