German thrashers EXUMER have been confirmed to play a series of live shows in South America in June. The trek will take the band through Argentina, Chile and Brazil. Danish thrash masters ARTILLERY are joining them on the whole tour. This is Exumer's first appearance in South American in 24 years, where the band last played in Brazil in 1988.

Vocalist Mem V. Stein comments: "We have been waiting for this moment for a long, long time! It's a huge milestone in our career to return to Brazil after 24 years, where there are numerous online communities that wholeheartedly embrace Exumer and where our fans have been loyally following us since our first appearances in the 1980s. There could hardly be a more cult tour package, between Exumer and Artillery, to hit South America and the timing could not be better for us to return there shortly after the release of our new album."

Artillery's Michael Stützer Comments: "Artillery are looking forward to come to South America to play for some of the most dedicated thrashers in the world. It has been one of our main goals from the start of Artillery and we are so excited to play for the headbangers, who has supported us through all these years!"

Comments Exumer singer Mem V. Stein: "With Fire & Damnation, we tried to create the most punishing and dominant thrash metal album of our career. No lackluster songs, no fillers, no lazy performance and no compromises. It moves straight forward from the the very first song to the last, delivering a vibrant mix of skilled musicianship with the urgency of the classic thrash records from the 1980s!"

Exumer recorded their first new album in 25 years with producer Waldemar Sorychta at the helm. The 10-track strong, hard-hitting CD Fire & Damnation combines a punishing production with aggressive song writing. Exumer manages to capture the intensity and feel of the 1980s thrash metal gems and yet sound up to date on their latest output.
