The Clash of the Titans 1991 tour was one of the most epic and spectacular series of metal gigs to ever have graced the planet, basically making various venues in the US and Europe the very center of the scene for a day. Now, Megadeth and Slayer are set to embark on a tour of almost equal proportions in 2010, called the American Carnage Tour. They even brought on Testament as openers to re-create the Clash of the Titans vibe. The bands haven’t forgot the harsh times we all live in either and have introduced a special batch of limited supply $10 “recession-proof” tickets, so that everyone can enjoy the show, no matter the social status. Presale happens this Wednesday at 10am at Ticketmaster.com for most of the dates.
Both Megadeth and Slayer have released some incredible new albums this year, namely “Endgame” and “World Painted Blood” out now.
