In an effort to control the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous states and cities on the Decibel Magazine Tour routing have announced bans on gatherings in excess of 250 or 500 people (with many more expected to do the same in the coming days). As a result, we have been forced to cancel the Decibel Magazine Tour. The Decibel Magazine Tour celebrates its ninth annual run with the ambitious pairing of legendary Norwegian black metal progenitors Mayhem with their countrymates of black ‘n’ roll heroes Abbath. Arizona desert death dealers Gatecreeper and goth-infused metal upstarts Idle Hands round out a diverse and devastating line-up!

Mayhem will return to North America for the first time in support of Daemon, their new record, which has been universally hailed as their greatest since the band’s genre-defining debut, while the former Immortal frontman Abbath crabwalks back to the States and Canada in support of his band’s stunning new Oustrider album. “Finally, we head back overseas to present to you what chaos we have been cooking up lately,” declares Mayhem guitarist Teloch. “It’s been too long, hope to see you crazy fuckers out there!”

Presented by Century Media Records, and sponsored by Relapse Records, Holy Mountain Printing and Season of Mist, the Decibel Magazine Tour is once again poised to be grimmest and most frostbitten heavy metal tour of the entire winter. Tickets for the 2020 Decibel Magazine Tour are ON SALE NOW! All dates and venues are below:

Sat, Mar 21 • Santa Ana, CA • The Observatory SOLD OUT!
