The road warriors of Cannibal Corpse are set to beat you into an unrecognizable, eviscerated puddle of guts once again, as the brutal death metal forerunners have just announced a U.S. winter tour. With the array of destruction coming to the U.S. during the remainder of 2012, we keep insisting that the tours couldn’t get any heavier, but with Misery Index and Hour of Penance joining Corpse on the road, we were proven wrong.

Continuing to support their 2012 full-length disc ‘Torture,’ Cannibal Corpse set to head out for a three-week run of U.S. tour dates. Beginning on Nov. 16 in Huntsville, Ala., and concluding in the death metal mecca of Tampa, Fla. on Dec. 7, this tour will be an incredibly heavy experience, with an unrelenting assault of extreme and brutal metal coming from all three bands.

Maryland deathgrinders Misery Index have pummeled metalhead for over a decade, establishing themselves as one of the world’s most extreme bands in metal. Their latest full-length, ‘Heirs to Thievery,’ was unleashed in 2010 by Relapse Records. Italian death metal band Hour of Penance are barbaric veterans from their boot-shaped homeland, having unleashed ‘Sedition’ this year upon eager fans.
