Revelations of the Ancients Tour. An appropriate name for a tour boasting both Possessed and Pestilence, two bands that contributed to the rise of death metal in the 1980s. Possessed is considered the first band of the genre and participated in the famous WWIII Weekend Festival in Montreal in 1985, with Celtic Frost, Destruction, Voivod, and Nasty Savage. If you missed the San Francisco band’s performance last September at Club Soda (as part of the Quebec Deathfest 2019), don’t repeat the mistake, and take the opportunity to witness singer Jeff Becerra’s fiery delivery on stage.
