HULL Announce Spring Mini-Tour; Band To Level Austin At SXSW
February 22, 2012, 12 years ago
Brooklyn sludge rock ministers HULL have announced another stretch of tour dates this spring. The short but epic run will commence on March 7th in Long Branch, New Jersey. From there the band will forge their path towards Austin to pillage their way through another SXSW Music Conference.
Commented the band in a collective statement: "The fires of life boil our blood as we anticipate the rising of the moon. Sharpening our steel for the open road, the Earth’s tides overwhelm the coasts. With much doom, the salted sands part as tortured souls spread their heavy upon the cracked crust of our Mother. Brother and Sister traverse the scarred country side, elating the spirits of willing followers as the skies blacken with the sorrow that is expelled. Once again, packed neatly in their battered vessel, Hull burn this candle of life and light the roadside within the depths of night. Accompanied by true warriors upon the first leg are BLACK TUSK, ROYAL THUNDER and EAST OF THE WALL. Raise your fists in revelry. Stand side by side as we carve deep into the soil of this turbulent wasteland."
