THE BRUTAL BIG 5, It Might Be A Reality Soon


Suffocation (2012) In a recent interview with Suffocation bassist Derek Boyer, Derek discussed the Brutal Big 5. For those that aren't aware, The Brutal Big 5 is death metals answer to the Big 4 (Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth, and Anthrax). Derek not only talked about it, but went on to state that it is in early planning stages. Derek stated "We are talking about doing rotating headlining spots with Suffocation, Deicide, Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse and Obituary. We want to get all the heavy weights together and flip-flop and take turns headlining. It will be really fun to get this thing to work out."

Hopefully this becomes a reality.

Suffocation will release "Pinnacle of Bedlam" Feb 19 via Nuclear Blast Records.
