The American Carnage tour marked the first time since the Clash of the Titans tour in 1990–1991 that Slayer and Megadeth had toured together with either Testament or Anthrax; unlike Clash of the Titans, however, this tour did not feature Suicidal Tendencies or Alice in Chains. Megadeth, Slayer and Testament were touring in support of their respective albums World Painted Blood, Endgame and The Formation of Damnation, while Anthrax (who had just recently reunited with Joey Belladonna as their singer) were working on their tenth studio album Worship Music, which was released in the following year.
