Death metal legends Dying Fetus are set to level stages across North America this fall on a devastating co-headlining tour with rising extreme metal band Sanguisugabogg. The tour kicks off September 17 in Philadelphia, PA at Franklin Music Hall and runs through October 24, concluding in Richmond, VA at The National.
The stacked package features support from sludge legends Crowbar, deathcore band Left to Suffer, and underground band Deterioration, with Scorching Tomb appearing on select dates.
Frontman John Gallagher shared his excitement for the run:
“Now this is the kind of bill we’re talking about — Crowbar and Deterioration are legends in their own right, Sanguisugabogg are leading the new breed of extreme metal, and Left to Suffer are one of the hottest up-and-coming heavyweights. We are bringing all of it to 32 cities this fall, and we’re not holding anything back. See you in the pit.”

+ With Scorching Tomb
Formed in 1991, Dying Fetus have carved out a legacy as one of the most dominant forces in extreme music. Blending technical precision with crushing grooves, the band helped define the intersection of death metal, hardcore, and grindcore.
Across a catalog of nine studio albums—including Destroy the Opposition, Reign Supreme, and 2023’s Make Them Beg for Death—the band has remained a benchmark for intensity and songwriting in the global metal underground.
