Savannah, GA’s BLACK TUSK will embark on a four-week US tour, co-headlining with Atlanta’s ZOROASTER, starting in mid-June in support of their Relapse debut, Taste The Sin.
This tour immediately follows the band’s dates with the legendary EYEHATEGOD in early June.
Black Tusk will also be touring alongside PENTAGRAM later this month, around Taste The Sin’s May 25th release date. A listing of confirmed Black Tusk tour dates can be found below with more to be announced soon.
Additionally, Black Tusk has debuted the second preview track off Taste The Sin. The track, 'Red Eyes, Black Skies', can be heard via the band’s MySpace page, along with 'Embrace The Madness'.
Black Tusk recently filmed a video for 'Red Eyes, Black Skies' with director Kevin Custer (FLOGGING MOLLY, HATEBREED, TOMBS) in Austin, TX. The video is expected to see its premiere imminently.
Taste The Sin was recorded at the Jam Room Recording Studio (BARONESS, BAND OF HORSES, KYLESA, WITHERED) in Columbia, SC with engineers Jay Matheson and Steve Slavich. Taste The Sin will be available on CD, gatefold LP, and digitally. A complete listing of available formats can be found here.
