The Summer Slaughter Tour unveils this year’s lineup

This year’s U.S. version of “The Summer Slaughter Tour” has been announced, with Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed taking over as new lead after a dismal 2024 performance. This year’s run will be headlined by Jasta’s own metalcore band, as previously indicated, with Bleeding Through and Fugitive providing direct support on a few dates. The roster is completed by Malevolence, Gridion, Escuela Grind, Snuffed On Sight, and Incite.

A new era of Summer Slaughter has begun. Huge thanks to Ash and the Sumerian team for their belief and support. Myself and Sound Talent Group are excited to be working with them going forward and taking the tour worldwide. It’s been years since Hatebreed has done a Summer tour in the U.S. and Summer Slaughter is the perfect return for us. The tour has always catapulted the newest and brightest talent to new heights and we’ll be continuing in that tradition while expanding in size and scope. Let the slaughter begin AGAIN! Jamey Jasta

I’ve always wanted Hatebreed to headline Summer Slaughter since the inception of the tour many years ago. Jasta and the band have always curated and built community across different sub-genres in the world of heavy underground music like very few others have been able to. I am thrilled it’s finally happening on Slaughter with Hatebreed at the top. Now is the time!
