DEATH TO ALL To Celebrate DEATH's 'Spiritual Healing' And 'Symbolic' Albums On Fall 2025 North American Tour

DEATH TO ALL, the touring tribute to the late Chuck Schuldiner and his pioneering band DEATH, returns to North American stages this November for a month-long celebration of two of the legendary band's landmark albums: "Spiritual Healing" (1990) and "Symbolic" (1995).

"The time has come to commemorate a couple of milestones in the DEATH catalog," says Gene Hoglan, whose iconic drum performances graced classic DEATH albums "Individual Thought Patterns" (1993) and "Symbolic". "30 years of 'Symbolic' and 35 years of 'Spiritual Healing'! Two vastly different yet very important eras of DEATH. Both albums are going to be a blast to represent."

Hoglan is joined in the DEATH TO ALL lineup by fellow DEATH veterans Steve DiGiorgio (bassist on 1991's "Human" as well as "Individual Thought Patterns") and Bobby Koelble (guitarist on "Symbolic"),as well as Max Phelps (EXIST, ex-CYNIC) on guitar and vocals. DEATH TO ALL celebrated "Scream Bloody Gore" (1987) and "The Sound Of Perseverance" (1998) across North America in 2024.

Along with the dual album celebration, each night will showcase classics from DEATH's catalog.

"Will 'Spiritual Healing' and 'Symbolic' be performed in their entirety like last year's sold-out 'Scream Of Perseverance' tour?" Hoglan teases. "Well, everyone is going to have to catch these shows for themselves to see. Will it be an incredible night of unforgettable metal, honoring the great Chuck Schuldiner, as only DEATH TO ALL can do? Of course it will. DEATH TO ALL stands alone."

The fall tour will feature special guests GORGUTS and PHOBOPHILIC.

"It's with great honor that we'll be sharing the stage with these death metal monuments," says GORGUTS vocalist/guitarist Luc Lemay. "DEATH had such an important influence on me as an artist. It's the band that made me want to become a death metal musician. Chuck was my idol, my inspiration. See you on stage. Be prepared for an evening of classic death metal!"

North Dakota death dealers PHOBOPHILIC will open each show with their cerebral savagery.

"This will be an unforgettable tour, indeed," Hoglan promises. "We can't wait to share these November nights with all of you."

Founded in 1984 by Chuck Schuldiner under the original name of MANTAS in Altamonte Springs, Florida, DEATH was among the more widely known early pioneers of the death metal sound, along with California's POSSESSED. Inspired by NASTY SAVAGE, DEATH was among the first bands in the Florida death metal scene. In the late '80s, the band was both a part of and integral in defining the death metal scene which gained international recognition with the release of albums by a number of area acts.

DEATH TO ALL operates as a tribute band to the original DEATH, which dissolved in 2001 following Schuldiner's passing.
