German death metallers NECROPHAGIST have announced plans to play a series of U.S. dates in April/May prior to their previously announced concerts in Canada (which are scheduled to take place in early June). The band will play approximately 30 shows covering the entire country, including an appearance at this year's Maryland Deathfest, to take place May 27-28, 2006 at the Sonar in Baltimore. Tour dates, venues and support acts will be announced within the next two weeks.

NECROPHAGIST's Canadian tour will take place in the provinces of Quebec and Ontario from June 1 to June 10. For their first visit to Canada, the German band will be touring with ION DISSONANCE (Canada), ARSIS (United States) and ALARUM (Australia).

NECROPHAGIST's most recent album, "Epitaph", was issued in 2004 via Relapse Records.

Anyone booking this? or is massconcerts or the middle east probably going to snag it

It'd better fucking come this way!!!!!!

I want a full fucking set!!

gah!!!

yeah, this is pretty lame.

wait! the necrophagist date is the 28th, the metalfest is the 22-24th...at least thats what the official page says anyways.

if thats the case, GOOD.

let's hope so...

I wish that the Shroud/Keen of the Crow tour did'nt fall on the same weekend as MDF, because I'd be there if we weren't gonna be else where.

it'd be cheaper to go see this tour in ny then the metalfest

NY is the last day of the tour too, should be fun.

i refuse to drive in NY, but if any of you massholes come through ct and pick me up, there'll be many joints smoked on the way down
