Napalm Death and Melvins have announced the “Savage Imperial Death March Part II” US co-headlining tour, set for Spring 2025.
The extensive outing kicks off April 4th in San Diego and runs through May 27th in Denver. Along the way, Napalm Death and Melvins will also be making a stop at Sick New World on April 12th in Las Vegas.
The co-headlining gigs feature a stacked rotation of support acts: Weedeater (April 4th to May 5th); Titan to Tachyons featuring Mr. Bungle’s Trevor Dunn (May 7th to 20th); The Hard-Ons with Jerry A (May 22nd to June 7th); and Shane Embury’s Dark Sky Burial, the solo project of the longtime Napalm Death bassist, on all dates.

The trek reprises Napalm Death and Melvins’ initial “Savage Imperial Death March” tour from 2016. For this run, Melvins will be performing in their dual-drummer format featuring Dale Crover — making his return to the kit after undergoing emergency spinal surgery last year — alongside Coady Willis, who had filled in for Crover and played drums for the Melvins from 2006 to 2015 (and currently plays in High on Fire).
“Napalm Death! Melvins! What a dream! Not only are we looking forward to being on the road with our friends in Napalm Death, but we’re excited to have both Dale and Coady both on drums once again,” enthused Buzz Osborne in the press release.
