Morbid Angel were just a couple weeks away from headlining the 2024 Devastation of the Nation Tour with Suffocation, Uada, Mortiferum, Fulci, and Knoll, but they’ve had to drop off due to “unforeseen circumstances.” Instead, you’ll get to see a different, arguably equally-exciting version of Morbid Angel on this tour. In their place will be I Am Morbid, the band led by former Morbid Angel vocalist/bassist David Vincent (1986-1996, 2004-2015) and drummer Pete Sandoval (1988-2010), who play sets that focus on the first four Morbid Angel albums, all of which they both played on. They’ve only played a select few US shows before this, which will be their first US tour.
The tour organizers write:
The highly anticipated DEVASTATION ON THE NATION Tour presented by @voxandhops kicks off in less than three weeks, and we’ve got an important update to share!
Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, Morbid Angel will no longer be joining us on this tour. Stepping up to take the headlining spot is none other than @iammorbidband! Fronted by David Vincent, the original Morbid Angel vocalist and bassist, the band includes Morbid Angel’s original and legendary drummer Pete Sandoval, and guitarists Bill Hudson (Doro, Northtale) and Richie Brown (Terrorizer, ex-Trivium).
Get ready to be blown away as I AM MORBID delivers an unforgettable set, performing classic tracks from the Vincent & Sandoval era, including fan favorites from “Altars of Madness,” “Blessed Are The Sick,” “Covenant,” and “Domination.”
“A U.S. tour for I AM MORBID is long overdue. We are looking forward to bringing the old school morbid legacy to our friends across the nation!” – David Vincent
