FEAR, EMPTINESS, DECIBEL: WHICH BANDS WILL BE ON THE DECIBEL TOUR?
Before there were blogs there were these things called magazines, and the only metal magazine we still get excited about reading every month is Decibel. Here’s managing editor Andrew Bonazelli…
Teaser time! It took us almost eight years to earn (and lose, and re-earn, kind of) enough cred to make this happen, but we’re proud to announce the first-ever Decibel Magazine Tour, coming next April to an unflushed toilet near you! And dickish enough to not announce that much more about it! But we do have the glorious official tour logo above, rendered by sketch-tastic auteur Justin Bartlett (Trap Them, Wolves Like Us, Locrian), with text lettering courtesy of in-house design scumbag Bruno Guerreiro.
While a real-deal announcement about the actual participants will be made sometime after the new year, you can actually somewhat determine what bands are onboard from Justin’s art. Study closely, then take a stab in the comments. Hint: Orgy haven’t officially reformed yet, so gotta wait ’til 2013 on that one.

While you wait for the big announcement: the January 2012 issue of Decibel, which features Lamb of God, Behemoth, Opeth, Mastodon, and a Cryptopsy Hall of Fame, can be ordered here. But why not just get a full subscription to ensure that you never miss one an issue?
