Morbid Angel Announce Tour; Lou Reed And Metallica Not Opening

Touring

It’s been a minute since we’ve heard from Morbid Angel. Their most recent album, last year’s Illud Divinum Insanus, wasn’t exactly their most popular album. In fact, until Lou Reed and Metallica’s Lulu came out, was considered by many to be the year’s worst metal album (in it’s defense, there were a handful of good tracks on it). That might explain why the band has chosen to lay low in the States, instead playing throughout the rest of the world. Regardless, the band has decided to come out of hiding and will finally be doing a North American tour this Fall. Dark Funeral and Grave will open. Speaking of that, did you know you can enter to win some Dark Funeral vinyl? Considering that Morbid Angel have an extensive back catalog, this is shaping up to be a pretty solid tour. Dates are below.
