Suffocation Announces 2025 “Embrace the Suffering” European Tour

While normal people want to avoid suffering, New York state-death metal practitioners Suffocation want you to embrace it for some reason, as evidenced by the name of their upcoming 2025 European tour, which will be known as the “Embrace the Suffering” Tour after a song of the same name from the band’s latest LP Hymns from the Apocrypha. While they’re trekking through Europe and embracing their suffering, I’ll be spending that time embarking on my own personal “Avoid the Suffering” tour, which basically involves me staying home and watching Doctor Who reruns while I smoke weed. We’ll see who has a better time!

If, for whatever reason, Suffocation’s “Embrace the Suffering” Tour sounds more appealing to you, you should know that support on the tour will come from Angelmaker, Carcosa, Fuming Mouth, and Mélancolia and pre-sale tickets go on sale on Friday. Check out the full list of dates below.
