Los Angeles, CA death metal powerhouse Abysmal Dawn have announced an extensive US Tour with death metal icons Cannibal Corpse! The month long tour, featuring support from label-mates Exhumed and underground death troupe Arkaik, kicks off on April 5th in Jacksonville, FL and includes an appearance at the The Cincinnati Metal Fest on April 14 as well as a special show on April 28 where the brutal caravan will merge with the Decibel Magazine tour featuring Behemoth, Watain, The Devil’s Blood and In Solitude.
Additionally, the band will play five shows leading up to the tour with Exhumed and Arkaik. A complete list of Abysmal Dawn dates is available below. Guitarist/Vocalist Charles Elliot commented on the upcoming dates:
"It's an honor and a dream come true to share the stage with one of my favorite bands, Cannibal Corpse! Cannibal was the first death metal show I ever attended as a kid and it obviously left a lasting impression on me. We also can't wait to perform alongside our friends Exhumed and Arkaik, who will help us fly the flag of California death metal across the US every night. I speak for everyone in the band when I say that we're super excited to hit the road with this tour package. We look forward to leveling the U.S.and partying with you maniacs once again! See you on the road!"
Abysmal Dawn is currently streaming the remastered reissue of their debut album From Ashes in its entirety via Bandcamp at this location. The long out-of-print debut saw its reissue last month via Relapse Records.
