Overkill To Tour With God Forbid, Diamond Plate And Suidakra

Touring

Overkill was originally supposed to hit the road this Spring on the Killfest 2 tour. However, the past few weeks saw many of the bands originally on the bill drop off. The dates for the tour remain the same, while Diamond Plate and Suidakra are still slated for the two month trek as well. However, it would appear that Overkill have dropped the Killfest 2 moniker and have added a big name to the bill.

It’s been announced this morning that God Forbid will be touring with Overkill on the Electric Age Tour. This tour will greatly help both the thrash legends and NJ metal band out quite a bit, as both bands’ new albums (Overkill’s Electric Age and God Forbid’s Equilibrium) come out on March 27. And with the addition of Diamond Plate and Suidakra, this certainly makes for another strong touring package to take place this Spring.
