Arizona thrashers Sacred Reich are celebrating the 30th anniversary of their classic album Ignorance by kicking off a world tour. The 30 Years of Ignorance tour kicks off in Europe in July which includes major festivals such as Wacken Open Air, Dynamo Metal Fest, Into the Grave Fest, Brutal Assault Fest, Alcatraz Fest and Summer Breeze. Following their European run, they will hit North America in September with Byzantine as support.
