Denver’s CEPHALIC CARNAGE are currently rounding out their run as part of the Summer Slaughter Tour, their first North American tour in support of their brand new album, Xenosapien.

The Summer Slaughter Tour kicked off on June 1st, working its way all across North America selling out venues with its stacked bill of Cephalic Carnage along with NECROPHAGIST, DECAPITATED, CATTLE DECAPITATION, ION DISSONANCE and more. The tour is set to conclude on July 8th in New York City.

Cephalic Carnage drummer John Merryman checks in from the road; "Greetings to everyone supporting the Summer Slaughter tour. We have enjoyed some amazing shows and fans throughout the country thus far and wish to give many thanks to all from the Cephalic camp. We would especially like to thank everyone in Denver who attended the SOLD OUT Summer Slaughter show on June 23. We were blown away by the amount of support and the crowd response to the entire show, and definitely to our set. It felt great to play at home again and we look forward to sharing more live intensities with all our fans. Many thanks; again and again, to the Denver scene and we look forward to the rest of this incredible tour and the many that will follow.”

Cephalic Carnage will head to Europe in August for a run of dates with label-mates DYING FETUS and a handful of festival appearances. A listing of Cephalic Carnage tour dates can be found below with many more to be announced soon.

Additionally, Cephalic Carnage has posted a new track from Xenosapien, 'Divination Volition', exclusively at their MySpace page.
