Alex Webster of CANNIBAL CORPSE comments; "We are very excited to be touring the US and Canada with Neuraxis, The Faceless, and Obscura. This is a killer lineup as each band is extreme and heavy but has their own unique style. We're playing a number of cities we rarely get to on this tour, so be sure to check the tour dates closely...you don't want to miss this one!"
