| Following the release of their brutal latest album Grizzly and their hugely successful ‘Winter Grizzly’ headline tour in January, Russian metal powerhouse SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL have announced a string of exclusive UK and European headline tour dates. These dates will take place alongside their summer festival appearances, including their first ever UK festival headline slot at Bloodstock Open Air 2026. These shows will see the band perform in some incredibly intimate spaces, giving fans an opportunity to see their live spectacle up close and personal in between huge main stage performances all over the continent. Joining the band at select dates are Vended, Crypta and Chained Saint. Speaking on the tour announcement, frontman Alex Terrible shares:
“Europe, we are coming back again this summer, and it feels very powerful for us. For a long time we’ve dreamt of headlining the biggest festivals there, and now SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL gets to go on these huge stages with our own show and production. It’s crazy feeling for me because I remember playing small clubs in Europe and now, we bring the full power of the band to the biggest crowds. “We’re also bringing our friends with us, Vended, Crypta and Chained Saint. Very strong bands and we are proud to share these shows together. “This will be the last European run for SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL for at least one year, so if you want to see us, this is the moment. We’ve prepared our biggest and most brutal show we’ve ever brought to Europe. Come and see it with your own eyes.” Tickets for the shows will go on general sale on Friday 13th March at 9:00am GMT.

Last week, SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL announced the inaugural Blood4Blood event in partnership with Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship and Danny Wimmer Presents. Taking place on 6th May ahead of Welcome To Rockville in Florida, the event will see Alex Terrible (1-1 in bare knuckle fighting) fight in the main event against middleweight and PBR star, Cameron ‘The Bull’ Delano, (1-0) as well as headline the night’s musical performances. Blood4Blood will also host sets from heavy music icons Black Label Society, Crowbar and Malevolence throughout this one of a kind event, merging the intensity of combat sports and hard rock into one immersive experience. Find more information here. ABOUT SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL:
SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL are pushing heavy music to new extremes, delivering unapologetically hard modern metal while smashing expectations, and becoming one of the most talked about bands in heavy music in the process. With over one million monthly Spotify listeners, the band are arguably the highest streaming band in extreme music, a fact further reflected in their live shows. Packing out sizeable venues on their headline shows, the band also draw huge crowds at their festival appearances, and led a record-breaking wall-of-death at HELLFEST OPEN AIR 2024. SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL’s journey began in the most unlikely of ways—two musicians from completely different worlds. Alex Terrible, forging his monstrous vocals from a small bedroom in the cold, rural Russian city of Yekaterinburg, crossed paths online with guitarist Jack Simmons, who sharpened his craft in a quiet town on the outskirts of Essex, UK. What started as a distant collaboration quickly turned into a brotherhood, as their exchanges of ideas took shape, songs were formed and it became apparent to Jack and Alex that they were on to something special. Initially capturing a global audience on YouTube with his demonic takes on songs by bands such as Slipknot, Suicide Silence and Linkin Park, Alex began to share the fruits of his labor with Jack under the name SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL – and the internet liked what it heard. Catching the attention of Sumerian Records, one of the most respected labels in hard rock, SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL had found a partner to provide a global platform for their music. Hundreds of millions of streams later, it’s safe to say it’s a partnership that has served both parties well. When they’re not commanding festival crowds, frontman Alex Terrible is proving his fighting spirit beyond his musical career. Fresh off a brutal 37-second knockout in Russia’s RCC Bare Knuckle—a promotion known for its savage, no-nonsense fights, Alex is in training to sharpen his skills for a bout with Top Dog Bare Knuckle in May, while discussions continue regarding his American debut with Bare Knuckle FC. Whether wrestling bears in Siberia, preparing for fights in the deep South, or bleeding on stage across the rest of the world, Alex thrives in the most unforgiving environments. BAND MEMBERS
