MALEVOLENCE Drop Off 2025 ‘Summer Slaughter Tour’ Due to Personal Circumstances

Malevolence have officially withdrawn from this year’s edition of the ‘Summer Slaughter Tour’, following their recent disappearance from several promotional lineups. The British groove-metalcore group shared a statement yesterday, July 2nd, confirming their complete removal from the tour.

“To Our Fans in the US and Everyone Looking Forward to the Summer Slaughter Tour:
We are sad to announce we will no longer be joining Hatebreed and the rest of the lineup this July.
Due to unforeseen personal circumstances, we’ve had to make the difficult decision to step back from this run.
As a band this kind of decision has never been taken lightly, and we want to sincerely apologise to anyone who was forward to catching us on this tour.
We have nothing but love for everyone involved in the Summer Slaughter tour and encourage you all to go out and support every band on that stage.
We hope to be back in the US with you all soon.
With love and respect,
MALEVOLENCE”
