SkullsNBones.com's Metal Mark caught up with OBITUARY members Trevor Peres And Donald Tardy before their set at Saint Vitus Bar in Brooklyn, New York on October 10th. The two death metal legends talk about their new album, their fan's support, and more. Watch below:
Obituary are bringing their brutal wares to the stage on a short series of live assaults. The tour began with a pair of back-to-back shows at Brooklyn, New York's Saint Vitus Bar, and concludes on October 20th. Having been holed-up in their own Redneck Studios penning the follow-up to 2009's punishing Darkest Day full-length (2009), the shows serve as a temporary writing break.
Obituary dates:
October
18 - Cobra Lounge - Chicago, IL19 - Cafe 611 - Frederick, MD
20 - El N' Gee - New London, CT
The as-yet-untitled full-length will be recorded with the KickStarter funding help of their legion of dedicated fans around the globe. The campaign, rooted in an honest desire to produce the next record on their own terms, is in its final week.
"We've been creating death metal since 1984," the band comments. "It's who we are...it's in our blood. If there's one thing that we've learned touring all these years, it's that Obituary fans are among the most loyal and supportive motherfuckers in the world! We've been trying to find better ways to engage with and give back to our fans. Over the past couple of years, we've streamed concerts live from around the globe, given away tons of merch packages and dozens of all-access backstage passes. It's inspiring to see and share in your excitement about Obituary, and the inspiration that provides keeps us going. This is about putting our trust, our music, our career, and our new album in fans' hands! We want to make music for the people who still come out to shows, still sport our gear, and still have a Slowly We Rot cassette in their car."For Obituary KickStarter info, point your browser here.
