SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL To Take A “Long Break” In 2027 & 2028

Russian deathcore heavyweights Slaughter To Prevail have revealed they’ll be stepping back from touring in 2027 and 2028 — but not before embarking on an enormous world tour in 2026. But then yeah, it’s time for the slaughter to momentarily not prevail.

Slaughter To Prevail frontman Alex Terrible shared the news via Instagram on October 1, explaining that he intends to take time away from the road to focus on his family… and maybe those bears he adopted?

“I want to take a long break for 2027 and 2028 to write music and spend more time with my son and my wife. But in 2026, we want to start the year with a European tour, which we’ve already announced — and it is selling really well. I think this will be our biggest European tour yet. We’ll most likely add Kazakhstan too.

“Right after that, in spring, we want to do a North American tour, then return to European festivals in the summer. In autumn, we plan to tour Asia — Japan, China, possibly Indonesia, and maybe even Australia. And to close out the year, in winter, we’ll head to South America and finish 2026 with a big show in Mexico!

“To our dear listeners and fans: if you want to see and hear us live, 2026 will be the best time. Thank you all so much for your understanding and support. We’ll be announcing everything very soon. Europe is already on sale!”
