WEAPON Complete New Album Recordings; Additional North American Tour Dates Announced
May 29, 2012, 12 years ago
Canadian blackened death metal blasphemers WEAPON have completed the recordings for their Relapse debut, entitled Embers And Revelations. The band entered the studio on March 18th to self-record the new album along with producer Terry Paholek at The Physics Lab in their hometown of Edmonton, Canada.
Continuing on the same scathing path as their previous works, the upcoming release, planned for the fall of 2012, is sure to be their most vicious and all-out evil offering to date.
Guitarist/vocalist Vetis Monarch commented on the upcoming album: "Weapon loyalists can expect no-holds barred, satanic death metal that the band displayed on it's previous work, but further refined and sharpened to ferocious perfection. Embers And Revelations will be the apex of malice via music."
Additionally, Weapon has confirmed a three week tour with black metal legends MARDUK and 1349 with additional support from WITHERED. The tour begins this Saturday, June 2nd in Baltimore, MD and ends on June 20th in San Diego, CA. Immediately following these dates, the band will headline a string of shows with support from Withered, HOD, NIGHTBRINGER and BLASPHERIAN on select dates.
