Thrash legends Exodus announced a fall North American tour in November and December, their first headlining outing in a number of years. They’ll be joined by younger thrashers Havok and Dead Heat and Richmond hardcore band Candy for the shows, which begin on November 2 in Tampa and wrap up on December 7 in Los Angeles. See all dates below.
“Exodus are super stoked to announce ‘The Battle of ’24’, our tour with Havok, Candy, and Dead Heat,” says guitarist Gary Holt (who was busy with Slayer for a while, and now has a few shows with them again). “This tour will be raging, and this is our first headlining tour in many years, so we’re excited to dig out some deep cuts as well as play some more songs off of Persona Non Grata. Let the battle begin!”
The NYC show is at Warsaw on November 22, and tickets to all dates go on sale Friday, June 28 at 10 AM local, with various presales starting Wednesday, June 26 at 10 AM local.
Candy just opened for Dillinger Escape Plan at two of their Brooklyn reunion shows, and they released their great third album, It’s Inside You, in June. They also have headlining shows coming up with Jivebomb, Taraneh, Zulu, Gumm, and Extinguish, varying by date.
Both Havok and Dead Heat have (separate) European tours lined up this summer, Havok with Skeletal Remains, Dust Bolt, Testament, and Kreator, and Dead Heat with Dying Fetus and Death Before Dishonor.
