Summer Slaughter at Rams Head Live

The annual Summer Slaughter tour is one of the biggest heavy metal summer tours in the US every year and 2015 will be no different! Arch Enemy is headlining the tour this year and we’re excited to be giving away a pair of tickets to the one of you lucky DCHM readers when the Summer Slaughter tour comes to Rams Head Live in Baltimore on Thursday, August 13th. All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post naming which band you’re most excited to see on this year’s Summer Slaughter tour! At 5pm EST this Friday, August 7th, a winner will be chosen at random (using Random.org) from all valid entries to win the pair of tickets. Be sure to enter using a valid email you check regularly so I can contact you if you win. Don’t worry, I won’t add you to any spam lists or sell your info or anything sleazy like that. If I haven’t heard back from the winner within 24 hours another winner will be chosen at random. If you can’t wait to see if you win or the contest is already over when you read this, then you can get tickets from Ticket Fly for $12 here.

Arch Enemy returns to Baltimore when Summer Slaughter comes to town and this will be the first time they play our area with Jeff Loomis playing guitar opposite Mike Amott! Born Of Osiris is a deathcore band from the Chicago area and they’ve just released a new song from their upcoming album, maybe they’ll play more from it live as well. Veil Of Maya is also a deathcore band from Chicago, though their sound has a Periphery-esque djent sound as well. The Acacia Strain from Massachusetts will be bringing their brand of metalcore to the stage on this tour as well. California based vegetarian death metal band Cattle Decapitation has a new album coming out and they’ll surely be playing some of that brutal new material for you at this show. And definitely get there early enough to see Beyond Creation from Montreal. The tech death band has one of the most incredible bass players in metal right now! So check out these videos by each band on the Summer Slaughter tour below and leave a comment telling me which band you most want to see when the tour comes to Baltimore next week!

Arch Enemy – War Eternal

Born Of Osiris – Throw Me In The Jungle

Veil Of Maya – Mikasa

The Acacia Strain – Cauterizer

Cattle Decapitation – Manufactured Extinct

Beyond Creation – Omnipresent Perception
