Polish black/death metallers BEHEMOTH are joining forces with WATAIN, THE DEVIL'S BLOOD and IN SOLITUDE, for a 26-date North American tour, to launch in April.

The trek doubles as Behemoth’s first North American tour since vocalist/guitarist Adam “Nergal” Darski’s well-documented battle with (and triumph over) leukemia.

“Considering the fact that we’ll be sharing the stage with the most evil and uncompromising bands around - Watain, The Devil’s Blood and In Solitude - this already makes it a legendary bill that you can’t miss out on!” promises Nergal. “Watch out. We won’t show up—we will ARRIVE with all the strength and might!”
