INTERNAL BLEEDING Announce European & UK Tour + ‘Settle All Scores’ Europan Release

Slam death metal pioneers Internal Bleeding return to Europe and the UK in 2026 in support of their crushing new full-length, Settle All Scores. The album, released in October 2025 stateside, will see its official European CD edition via Back On Black on April 17th, bringing one of the genre’s most anticipated records to physical format for fans overseas.

Formed in 1991 by guitarist Chris Pervelis, Internal Bleeding helped define and popularize the slam death metal sound. Early releases like Invocation of Evil and Perpetual Degradation not only built the band’s underground reputation but also laid the foundation for an entire subgenre—combining brutal heaviness with groove-driven hooks.

Their legacy expanded through landmark albums such as Voracious Contempt and Driven to Conquer, alongside relentless touring with acts like Immolation and Six Feet Under. Despite setbacks, lineup changes, and industry struggles, the band has remained a constant force—resilient, uncompromising, and influential.

Following their 2011 return and a series of acclaimed releases on Unique Leader Records, tragedy struck in 2017 with the loss of drummer Bill Tolley—a dedicated New York City firefighter who lost his life in the line of duty while serving his community. His passing was a profound blow to the band, and Internal Bleeding have since carried his memory forward, honoring his legacy through their music and continued perseverance.

Now signed to Maggot Stomp Records, the band pushed forward with renewed purpose, culminating in Settle All Scores—a furious, no-holds-barred statement that reaffirms their dominance and defiance.
