THE SWORD Announce UK Tour With CLUTCH
March 7, 2007, 17 years ago
Dynamic Austin, Texas-based quartet THE SWORD have announced UK tour dates in support of their critically acclaimed album, Age Of Winters. The Sword will team up with heralded hard rock unit CLUTCH for a string of live dates set to launch April 3rd.
To coincide with the tour, The Sword will issue a new single and video for the song 'Freya' (from Age Of Winters). A special 'Freya' tour 7" will also be pressed, strictly limited to 1000 copies and backed with a live version of the monolithic Age Of Winters track 'Iron Swan', recorded live at NYC's infamous CBGB's just prior to the historic venue's closing. The striking 'Freya' video was shot on HD film using a unique mixture of black and white and color, and details the story of 'Freya', who "appears on a battlefield after a battle and wanders through the corpses looking for warriors to take back to Folkvang." A still shot from 'Freya' can be viewed at this location.
