Carcass

The three-legged beast that is Slayer, Testament and Carcass kicked off their tour together on Friday (2/19) at Chicago’s Riviera Theatre. Slayer are supporting last year’s Repentless (their first album since Jeff Hanneman’s passing and Dave Lombardo’s re-departure) and they played a few songs off that, and of course also loaded the set with old classics: “Angel of Death,” “Postmortem,” “Mandatory Suicide,” “South of Heaven,” “War Ensemble,” “Raining Blood” and plenty of others. Testament kept things varied, reaching back for old favorites like “Into the Pit” and splitting things pretty evenly between that era, their ’90s era, and the newer stuff. Carcass, the only band on the bill whose newest material is widely acclaimed (2013’s Surgical Steel), focused pretty heavily on that but reached back to their early ’90s days too.

Check out more pictures from Chicago and all three bands’ setlists below. The tour hits the NYC-area on March 2 at The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester. Tickets for that show are still available.
