Heavy metal brewers TRIBUNE have announced their Canada Slays Tour 2014, kicking off in Kelowna, BC on April 3rd and will see the band trek as far East as Montreal, QC and return West to wrap up the tour in Nanaimo, BC on May 3rd. This is the band's second cross Canada Tour since 2012, when they toured the US and Canada in support of their album Elder Lore/ The Dark Arts.

Guitarist Terry Anderson states: "Greetings and salutations, friends of Tribune. We have news for you! After two years of musical scheming and dubious machinations, we've decided to serve you our eclectic brand of heavy metal in person. Tribune will be touring our newest album, Tales, across Canada. This means that we'll be stuffing our tall, sweaty selves into a van for the sake of your personal amusement. The new CD and Skeletal Lich Shirts are available, so come prepared if you want to put some gas into the tank of our voracious bandwagon. Her thirst is unending... We're calling this tour Canada Slays Tribune 2014. It's all about our friends and fans, as if it never were before... Come on out and have a good time with us."

The Vancouver quintet unleashed their concept album Tales this past October via their indie label Corpse Corrosion Music. Inspired entirely by literature, Tales features a wide array of influences, from Homer to Mary Shelley to H.P. Lovecraft, to more extreme influences such as CARCASS, DEATH and AT THEGATES. The band's appetite for more melodic and more brutally heavy sounds to follow-up 2011’s Elder Lore/The Dark Arts is demonstrated with their collusion of extremity and accessibility that bleeds into the melting pot and their fresh take of progressive death metal. Listen to the album below.
