MEGADETH AND SLAYER TO CO-HEADLINE
"CANADIAN CARNAGE" JUNE TREK

Monday, April 27, 2009 -- Talk about a mind-blowing line-up. Slayer and Megadeth - two of the bands that defined the thrash/metal genre - will perform together for the first time in more than 15 years when they co-headline four shows in Canada in late June. The tour, dubbed "Canadian Carnage," will also feature Machine Head and Suicide Silence, and will see Megadeth and Slayer each closing two of the four shows. Tickets will go on sale Saturday, May 2, and will be available at all Ticketmaster outlets and at Ticketmaster online.

Few bands come close to matching the intensity that Slayer brings to its live shows, having been named "Best Live Band" by numerous media outlets including Revolver, SPIN, and Metal Hammer. Slayer - guitarists Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman, vocalist/bassist Tom Araya and drummer Dave Lombardo - is currently in Los Angeles recording its as yet untitled tenth studio album with Greg Fidelman producing and Rick Rubin executive producing. Fans were given an early taste of the brutal new Slayer material when "Psychopathy Red," a song inspired by the heinous Russian serial killer Andrei Chikatilo, who confessed to savagely murdering 56 children, was recorded last October and then leaked online. Attendees of "Canadian Carnage" will be treated to Slayer performing "Psychopathy Red" live on stage. Plans are to release the new album in July, in tandem wi th the Mayhem Festival tour Slayer is co-headlining with Marilyn Manson.

With over 20 million albums sold worldwide, the icon that is Megadeth culminated earlier this month, with Dave Mustaine’s acceptance of the highly coveted “Golden God” accolade and the band's headline performance at the inaugural Revolver Golden Gods Awards in Los Angeles. Megadeth – lead guitarist/lead vocalist Dave Mustaine, lead and rhythm guitarist Chris Broderick, bassist James Lomenzo and drummer Shawn Drover – is currently recording their 12th studio album in Los Angeles with Andy Sneap. The disc is scheduled for release later this summer to coincide with a full scale world tour. Known for their ferocious live show, Megadeth will once again bring this intensity to their loyal throng of Canadian followers.

Bay Area titans Machine Head add to the carnage as main support. Machine Head - vocalist/guitarist Robb Flynn, guitarist Phil Demmel, bassist/backing vocalist Adam Duce and drummer Dave McClain - are currently touring in support of their critically-acclaimed and Grammy nominated The Blackening. Since its release, the band has been awarded both Best Album at the Metal Hammer Awards and Album of the Year at Kerrang's annual ceremony that same year. And with a fan base so rabid, they've actually been banned from certain U.S. venues, Machine Head will bring with them the relentless stage show they are renowned for.

There is little doubt in anyone's mind that Suicide Silence is one of the frontrunners of the new wave of American metal, a statement further validated as the group won the "Best New Talent" award at the inaugural Revolver Golden Gods Awards, held at Club Nokia in Los Angeles on April 7. The group was also hailed as the event's breakthrough artist by the L.A. Times, but make no mistake that this extreme juggernaut is not resting on its laurels and is about to take things up a notch with their highly-anticipated sophomore release, No Time to Bleed, which was produced by acclaimed producer Machine (Lamb of God) and set for a June 30 release.

Dates for the Megadeth/Slayer co-bill are:

June
24 GM Place, Vancouver, BC
26 Rexall, Edmonton, AB
27 Saddledome, Calgary, AB
29 MTS Centre, Winnipeg, MB

[Le G@SP]

Tain c'est clair, Mustaine et Kerry King ils ont pas intérêt à avoir des loges trop proches

[fabrice]

King c'est une grande gueule apres ...
Putain qu'il viennent faire un tour en Europe en septembre !!!

[over'phil]

manque plus qu'un petit testament en plus et ca ferait un clash of the titans

[Former Lee Warmer]

c'est vrai que l'affiche est belle (vont s'entretuer entre Flynn, King et Mustaine ) et elle serait bienvenue chez nous à la rentrée avec Anthrax (qu'aura son p'tit nouveau sous le bras) et puis Testament et Death Angel, elle serait pas belle la vie ?

[Mr. Sandman]

et on vire Machine Head et Suicide Silence !

[Gandalf]

Arretez de chipoter, c'est une affiche de la mort, s'i y a un groupe à rajouter, c'est pas un second couteau comme Death Angel (oui oui un second couteau même si j'aime beaucoup), mais Sepultura reformé !

[guardianofsteel]

Je pense qu'ils faisaient référence au Thrash of the Titans qui a silloné les USA dans les années 90, sur lequel Slayer et Megadeth, soutenus par Anthrax devaient à l'origine être accompagnés par Death Angel

[Gandalf]

Ok je savais pas. Le Thrash of the titans, c'est different du Clash of the titans ?

[guardianofsteel]

Nan, c'est le même, vu que je me suis planté de nom

En fait le thrash of the titans, c'était le concert organisé en 2001 pour le cancer de Chuck Billy de Testament.

[Gandalf]

Ah oui je m'en rappelle vaguement.
En tous cas, cette multiplication d'affiches de la mort qui tue comme le Priest feast ou ca, c'est tout bon pour nous

[guardianofsteel]

Clair! Le thrash revient à la mode, et c'est tant mieux

[over'phil]

Je pense qu'ils faisaient référence au Thrash of the Titans qui a silloné les USA dans les années 90, sur lequel Slayer et Megadeth, soutenus par Anthrax devaient à l'origine être accompagnés par Death Angel

erreur le thrash of the titans c'est un festival qui a eu lieu a san francisco en 2001 pour aider chuck bully a soigner son cancer avec tout un tas de groupe : LECACY, FORBIDDEN, VIO-LENCE.....

Le clash of the titans fut une affiche composé de slayer / megadeth / Sucidal tendencies /testament qui a silloné l'europe en octobre 1990 dont un passage au zenith le 2 octobre (ou le 1er octobre ??), d'ailleurs seasons in the abyss est sorti le même jour (cf la dedicace de Slayer au virgin megastore) , je me rappelle très bien j'y étais le zenith était blindé et ce fut le meilleur show de Slayer que j'ai pu voir la ca petait grave par contre megadeth fut bien pourrit
La même affiche Slayer /megadeth avec anthrax mais sans suicidal et testament a silloné les states en 1991

[guardianofsteel]

Faut lire jusqu'au bout quoi

le clash of the titans à Paris c'etait le 2 octobre.

Get ready for one of the most combustible tours of the fall — Canadian Carnage East — with co-headliners SLAYER and MEGADETH, two of the bands that defined the thrash/metal genre and have kept it alive and flourishing for decades. The five-date Canadian Carnage East kicks off on November 8 in Moncton, NB and wraps up in Toronto on November 13. The tour will feature MACHINE HEAD and SUICIDE SILENCE, and will see MEGADETH and SLAYER alternating the closing spot. Tickets go on sale this Friday, September 18 at 10:00 a.m. local time.

Nov. 08 - Moncton Coliseum, Moncton, NB
Nov. 09 - Halifax Metro Center, Halifax, NS
Nov. 11 - Bell Centre, Montreal, QC
Nov. 12 - Colisee Pepsi Arena, Quebec City, QC
Nov. 13 - Air Canada Centre, Toronto, ON

Tom Araya est aphone sur les dernières dates, alors le chanteur de CONTRIVE lui file un coup de main sur Dead Skin Mask :

[lelite]

Et pourquoi pas Megadeth / Nevermore

[Holy Cross]

parce que Nevermore ça m'emmerde et Dave le sait

[Larry]

Pfff Nevermore c'est trop bien et trop compliqué pour toi surtout

[Everflow]

Dave Mustaine a invité Kerry King à rejoindre Megadeth sur scène pour un morceau, mais King n'a pas répondu à l'invitation :

"Droogies!

I was saddened to hear that Tom Araya won't be able to perform tonight, as you know, and that they are going to proceed to Perth to wait for us and the last show here in Australia.

I wanted to be as gracious and considerate of the circumstances as possible, so yesterday I sent an invitation to Kerry King to come up and play a song from back when he played with us in the early days.

I know that it would require him coming here to Adelaide, and that the band has already decided to proceed to Perth, but I sent the invite yesterday, and I was really hoping that we could do something for the fans of Adelaide and so that the Slayer fans could at least see their hero in action; even if it is with us.

There is still several hours before the show, and I would love to see Kerry walk through the doors and say, 'Alright, let's play Rattlehead!'

However, I think that the time has passed for him to be able to comfortably travel here. I have my fingers crossed though.

Thanks for understanding, and we will make the best of it either way."
