THINE EYES BLEED Add More Dates To Canadian Tour
September 11, 2007, 17 years ago
Canadian thrashers THINE EYES BLEED, who will release their sophomore release on The End Records on March 4th, 2008, have added more tour dates to their upcoming tour of across Canada and the United States.
Says singer Justin Wolfe, "We will be heading out on a small headline run through Canada and parts of the USA for October/November to start things up! We plan to debut our new material and have a good fuckin' time!! We are bringing along some great bands, come on down and here some good ol' heavy metal! Keep checkin' back for more dates."
About the new album, a few of the bandmembers have commented:
"This ain't your one-note-chug-along and dance to-gay-haircut metal. There is thought behind the music and passion behind the musicianship. Metal that isn't compromising or commercial. This is the real deal. All killer and no filler... no singing... no 'breakdowns'. Real metal for real metalers. Keep it brutal and stay heavy." - Johnny Araya, bassist
"We never really discussed the direction. We all just knew it had be honest, unrellenting, abusive, and evil. That is what metal was all about in our opinion. The outcome is violent and makes me smile from begining to end." - Jeff Phillips, guitarist
"We never set any direction for this album, we did it for ourselves... It's a much more focused album than our debut and it's going to show. It's an in your face metal album for the true metalheads out there.. the only way I can describe it is pure evil..." - Justin Wolfe, singer
The band re-released their 2005 debut for The End, entitled 'In The Wake Of Separation', in May of 2006. The CD included the bonus track 'Better off Dead' (previously available only in Japan) and the video for 'Cold Victim'. Also last year, the band took part in the mega-successful North American and European legs of the 2006 Unholy Alliance Tour, which featured SLAYER, CHILDREN OF BODOM, MASTODON and LAMB OF GOD.
