Slaughter To Prevail Announce 2027–2028 Hiatus As Alex Terrible Prioritises Family and Writing

Share

Alex Terrible says Slaughter To Prevail will pause in 2027–2028 in order to spend time writing and with his family, with 2026 set as their biggest touring year yet.

Slaughter To Prevail frontman Alex Terrible has confirmed the band will take an extended break in 2027 and 2028, stepping away from touring so he can focus on family life and writing new material.

In a message posted to social media, Terrible explained his decision. “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.”

Before that hiatus, Slaughter To Prevail has laid out an ambitious schedule for 2026. Their European and UK run will kick things off in early 2026, with support from Dying Fetus and Suicide Silence. Annotations Of An Autopsy will join for the UK leg of the tour.

Terrible added that the band intends to cover nearly every major territory before stepping back. “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!”

The frontman thanked Slaughter To Prevail fans for their support and encouraged anyone wanting to see the band live to make 2026 a priority. “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!”
