Sweden's Aeon released Aeons Black in 2012 via Metal Blade Records and toured as part of the Summer Slaughter Tour in 2013. This will be the band's first time returning to North America since.
Guitarist Zeb Nilsson comments: "We're back again! And this time with the most brutal line up possible. With Cannibal Corpse, Behemoth, Aeon and Tribulation there is no reason to hesitate if you like death metal. This will probably be the number one death metal show for a long time."
Tribulation, who also hails from Sweden, released the critically acclaimed and lengthy 75-minute The Formulas Of Death, in 2013 on Invictus Productions.
