NEUROSIS Prepares For Most Widespread North American Tour In Nearly Two Decades
July 17, 2015, 9 years ago
In less than three weeks, Neurosis will embark on the band’s most widespread North American tour since before the turn of the millennium.
On the eve of their thirtieth anniversary, the forceful aural surge of Neurosis will be felt with a deluge of performances set to take place in sixteen cities across America and Canada this summer. The genre-creating quintet will punish the continent with one of their most crushing live sets to date, beginning on July 31st in Lawrence, Kansas, followed by shows in Minneapolis, Madison, Chicago, Louisville, Detroit, Toronto, Montréal, Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Richmond, Carrboro, Atlanta and New Orleans, before coming to a smouldering finale in Houston on August 16th, invading cities and states which they have not visited since the ‘90s along the way.
Support on this venture will be provided by a rotating, dynamic spread of acts, including nomadic doomsday cult, The Body, expansive rock duo, Sumac (members of Baptists, Old Man Gloom, ex-Isis, etc.), Pinkish Black and labelmates Iron Tongue, not to mention support from labelmates Brothers Of The Sonic Cloth (featuring Tad Doyle of TAD and Hog Molly) for the entire trek, excluding Neurosis’ participation in the immense Montréal Festival where they’ll join the likes of Mastodon, Meshuggah, Gorguts and many others.

As the next chapter in Relapse Records’ ongoing 25th anniversary commemoration, heavy music visionaries Neurosis will have two of their most revered and long out-of-print titles reissued on super deluxe 180-gram double vinyl this fall.
Through Silver In Blood (1996) has not been printed on vinyl in ten years, while Times of Grace (1999) is seeing its first pressing in over fifteen years. Additionally, Grace, the 1999 Tribes of Neurot companion piece to Times Of Grace, will also see a deluxe Relapse reissue, its first time ever on vinyl.
Each reissue will contain reinterpretations of the original iconic artwork and will be housed in heavy duty “tip-on” jackets and will be available in a variety of limited edition exclusive colours. The reissues are set for worldwide release on September 4th and will also include full album digital download codes. Pre-orders for all of the editions can be currently found here.
