AVERSIONS CROWN Vocalist Colin Jeffs To Sit Out European Dates; Replacement Announced
January 13, 2015, 9 years ago
Unfortunately due to medical issues affecting his voice, Colin Jeffs will be sitting out Aversions Crown's European tour with Within The Ruins and I Declare War.
However the brutal deathcore six-piece from Brisbane will still play all dates scheduled with Mark Poida from Melbourne's awesome I, Valiance filling in for Jeffs on vocals.
Commented guitarist Hayden Lee: “Sadly Colin is sitting out our European tour with Within The Ruins and I Declare War for health reasons. Lucky for all of us, the total beast Mark from I, Valiance will be covering for us. We played at Unify Festival in Australia with him a few days back and he CRUSHED it. Watch out Europe!”

Aversions Crown's Nuclear Blast Entertainment debut, Tyrant, is out now.
Formed in 2010 in Queensland’s Brisbane, the same sunny stretch of Australian coastline as Portal and The Amity Affliction, Aversions Crown developed their pummeling blend of mechanized brutality and haunting atmospherics by utilizing three guitarists brandishing 8-string guitars. Appearing live as a wall of muscle, guitars and flailing hair, the band have logged serious road miles across Australia, Europe and the United Kingdom with acts like Thy Art Is Murder, The Acacia Strain, Oceano, All Shall Perish, Cattle Decapitation and appearances at Warped Tour.
Tyrant, the follow-up to the band’s 2011 debut Servitude, was created in the oppressive heat of Brisbane’s summer with Thy Art Is Murder’s Andy Marsh producing and Mark Lewis (Whitechapel, Carnifex) of Audio Hammer mixing. With a thematic fixation on dystopian nightmares and hostile extraterrestrial encounters, the relentless barrage Aversions Crown churn out across these ten songs will soundtrack either a solid 'Halo' session or the coming invasion. The striking artwork was created by Swedish visionary Pär Olofsson, who has worked with acts like Pyscroptic, Aborted, Abysmal Dawn and The Faceless.
