AT THE GATES Announces 'Slaughter Of The Soul' Summer 2022 North American Tour

Swedish melodic death metal pioneers AT THE GATES will embark on a special “Slaughter Of The Soul” North American tour this summer. Originally planned for the 25th anniversary of “Slaughter Of The Soul” in 2020, the COVID-19 situation forced the band to postpone the trek until 2022. AT THE GATES will play the whole “Slaughter Of The Soul” album from start to finish, and also a mix of other tracks from its 30-plus-year career. Tickets go on sale on Friday, April 29 at 10 a.m.

Says the band: “We have been looking forward to return to the U.S. for several years now, and with a great tour package together with MUNICIPAL WASTE, ENFORCED and THROWN INTO EXILE, it is finally time. See you in the pit!”

Originally released in 1995, “Slaughter Of The Soul” is regularly cited as one of the most important and influential metal albums of all time, and was long regarded as AT THE GATES‘ final opus until the band announced they would issue a new studio album eight years ago. AT THE GATES‘ latest studio album, “The Nightmare Of Being”, came out last year.
