Montreal extreme metallers DESPISED ICON are confirmed to play at several European festivals this summer.
The band comments: "Fuck yeah! We're going back to Europe this summer! The festivals we're on are sick. We'll be sharing the stage with our buddies in THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, WHITECHAPEL, PARKWAY DRIVE and THE ACACIA STRAIN on most of the dates. Come hang out!"
The band is currently putting finishing touches on its new album, which is expected to surface via Century Media Records later this year.
To keep you updated on the recording process the band has launched weekly webisodes on their MySpace page.
Check out some new videos from the studio below.
The new opus will be produced by Yannick St-Amand and Zeuss (HATEBREED, SHADOWS FALL) and Alan Douches (GOD FORBID, MASTODON, THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN) will handle mix and mastering duties, be assured - this is going to be one of the most brutal albums in 2009.
