MetalSucks is extremely pleased to announce our latest and greatest tour sponsorship: Wintersun will be storming North America’s shores this summer! The reclusive Finns played a few select dates in North America last fall, but the coming tour sees them expanding their itinerary to 28 shows over 31 days and covering even more ground. They’ll be bringing Italian super-death-mongers Fleshgod Apocalypse, Long Island / Virginia tech-shredders Arsis and melodic death metallers Starkill along with them, making this a tour you absolutely cannot afford to miss.

We’ll have exclusive features and special guest posts from band members on the tour in the coming months. In the meantime, here’s the tour routing:
