SUICIDE SILENCE celebrated the 10 year anniversary of their debut LP The Cleansing on September 27th. The album was highly successful debuting at No. 94 on the Billboard 200 charts and securing their legacy as the death-metal front runners.

To commemorate this momentous anniversary, the band is hitting the road making 34 stops across North America. The tour kicked off in Oakland, California and will hit Toronto, New York, and Atlanta before concluding on December 17th in Los Angeles..

SUICIDE SILENCE will perform The Cleansing each night in its entirety. Joining the band on the tour are UPON A BURNING BODYSLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL and PRISONWINDS OF PLAGUE will meet up with the tour on December 12th in Dallas, Texas and finish the remaining dates.

“10 f—king years!! The Cleansing was a record we wrote when most of us were in our early 20’s. I was in my teens still! My has the time flown by,” guitarist Mark Heylmun writes. “All we knew back then was we wanted to offend ppl and piss in the face of the mainstream (Dying Fetus pun intended). We’ve wanted to do a commemorative tour for this record for years now and the time has come. The Cleansing broke us into the metal world and the record came from a very special place, a fresh place, a place that words fail when I try to describe it, and without it…well we wouldn’t be here attempting to describe it.”

Heylmun adds, “Mitch [Lucker] had a vision for this record, he wanted to set a standard for our scene and in my eyes he created much much more. Since his passing, Eddie has paid homage to Mitch‘s vox on this record every night. It’s something very close to our hearts to have Eddie singing these songs with us. Mitch and Eddie inspired each other, exchanged vocal tips, and both have the passion for the most brutal sounds you can humanly make and it’s going to be an amazing show for us and for you. Emotions will be high, maybe we will be high too, you don’t want to miss this. Let’s f—king party! Come celebrate with us cuz this will only happen once!”
