Megadeth has announced the band’s first tour dates following Dave Mustaine’s throat cancer diagnosis, and they’re with Five Finger Death Punch and Bad Wolves

Five Finger Death Punch has revealed the full roster for the band’s 2020 European tour with Megadeth and Bad Wolves. The trek will mark Megadeth’s first tour dates since frontman Dave Mustaine was diagnosed with throat cancer.

The tour will kick off in January and travel through Finland, Russia, Sweden, France, the U.K., Germany, Poland, Italy and more countries before wrapping up in in February.

“The line-up is massive,” Five Finger Death Punch guitarist Zoltan Bathory said in a statement. “Bad Wolves were THE break out band of recent years and are certainly bringing the heat.”

“Megadeth needs no introduction, they are absolute legends,” he continued. “Dave Mustaine’s contribution to this genre is simply immeasurable. I consider him one of the founding fathers of not just thrash but heavy metal in general, because his riffs and guitar playing have influenced everyone that was in Megadeth’s blast radius…and that’s a big radius.”
