This spring, Swedish black metal band Watain is teaming up with the Norwegian black metal group Mayhem on a North American tour titled “The Sanguine Sodomy Of North America.” The metal legends will be joined by the American metal punks Midnight.
The tour will kick off on March 7, 2022, in San Francisco and end almost a month later on April 3 in Joliet, Illinois. Throughout the tour, the groups will perform in over 20 major cities, including Los Angeles, Phoenix, Denver, Dallas, Atlanta, Charlotte, Toronto, New York, Detroit, Chicago and more.
“Mayhem and Watain are delighted to announce that what is to become known in history as the sanguine sodomy of North America is set to take place in the spring of 2022,” the bands said in a press release, “with both our bands at the helm and with the infamous Midnight joining us as special guests. We hereby invite all of our North American friends and foes to celebrate the return of Darkness and Evil to your lands, and to join us in what is destined to become one legendary Hell of a tour!”
Earlier this year, Mayhem released the Atavistic Black Disorder/Kommando EP, which writer Cait Stoddard described as “a solid piece of work showcasing Mayhem’s ability to shake people’s souls with their music.” In August 2022, Mayhem will also be featured as part of the lineup for the Psycho Las Vegas festival, alongside acts such as Mercyful Fate and Wolves.
