It’s been a long time since Hatebreed has embarked on a U.S. summer tour, and Summer Slaughter is the ideal platform for our return. This tour has consistently showcased the most promising and talented artists, and we are committed to continuing that legacy while enhancing the tour’s scale and impact. Let the slaughter begin AGAIN!”
