Tour Overview

Veteran death-metal band Dying Fetus (nine studio albums) will co-headline a fall 2026 North American tour with rising extreme-metal act Sanguisugabogg. Dying Fetus, known for technical brutality across nine studio releases, and Sanguisugabogg, cited as a leading voice of the new extreme-metal wave, anchor the bill. Supporting acts include sludge pioneers Crowbar, deathcore group Left to Suffer, grindcore outfit Deterioration, and special guests Scorching Tomb on the Canadian dates.

Timeline

Announced on April 28 2026, tickets go on sale May 1 2026 at 10 a.m.; the tour opens September 17 2026 in Philadelphia and closes October 24 2026 in Richmond.

Tour Scope

The itinerary spans 32 cities (30 U.S., 2 Canadian). Crowbar supports most shows, while Left to Suffer and Deterioration appear on all U.S. dates. Scorching Tomb joins the Canadian shows. Crowbar is absent on three U.S. venues (Boise, Riverside, Los Angeles).
