MUTILATION RITES Announce Spring Tour; New Website Launched
January 15, 2013, 11 years ago
Brooklyn's self-proclaimed filthy black metallers MUTILATION RITES will blast eardrums throughout the US on an upcoming spring tour with recent Relapse signees INTER ARMA. The tour - which starts in Chicago on March 10th and then heads south to the prestigious South By Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, Texas, where the band will perform multiple times - will feature Will Lindsay (INDIAN, ANATOMY OF HABIT, ex-NACHTMYSTIUM) filling in on bass for Ryan Jones, who had previous spring touring commitments with TODAY IS THE DAY. This will be the group's first tour since joining labelmates SKELETONWITCH for the second half of the extensive US Abomination tour in the fall.
Mutilation Rites' Prosthetic debut, Empyrean, was perhaps the label's most critically lauded release of 2012. The album was produced by Kevin Bernstein (TRIAC) and is currently available on CD or 180-gram black vinyl (the latter courtesy of Gilead Media) via the Prosthetic webstore. In addition, Empyrean is currently on sale for $5 through Amazon MP3.
