All Shall Perish - Europe Slamageddon Tour 2025

In 2002, mixing guttural death metal, NY hardcore, and Swedish melodic metal was considered blasphemy. All Shall Perish was born out of a musically eclectic group of kids from the Bay Area of California, home to many revolutionary metal acts. Their sound came from the influence of bands such as Dying Fetus, At The Gates, Hatebreed, Blood Has Been Shed, Irate, Cannibal Corpse, Dimmu Borgir, Pantera, and Metallica.

Upon releasing a demo in 2002, they were signed to a small Japanese label, Amputated Vein Records, and released their first album, Hate. Malice. Revenge, which was later re-released by Nuclear Blast Records in 2005. This record saw the unapologetically blasphemous intertwining of previously sacred styles and is considered to be among the very first Deathcore records ever; it is regularly cited as an influence among the waves of bands to form in its wake.

In 2006, ASP released a genre-defining album, The Price of Existence, featuring the addition of lead guitarist Chris Storey, bringing a face-melting shred virtuosity to ASP’s sound. The band also welcomed the insane dynamic range of vocalist Hernan "Eddie" Hermida, who would later go on to front Suicide Silence after the untimely death of their singer Mitch Lucker.

In 2008, Awaken The Dreamers was released, earning praise from Kirk Hammett of Metallica in Rolling Stone magazine as one of the top 25 albums of the decade. ASP toured the globe alongside bands like Slipknot, Korn, Limp Bizkit, Gojira, and Machine Head, becoming the first all-American metal band to tour Siberia.

After a hiatus following their 2011 release, This is Where it Ends, All Shall Perish reunited in 2024 with their Price of Existence lineup, reigniting the band's presence in a scene they helped shape. Their 2025 European Tour will mark their return to the global stage, proving once again why All Shall Perish is a foundational force in modern metal.
