THEM Featuring SYMPHONY X, SUFFOCATION Members Announce Tour Dates, Festival Appearances
March 2, 2017, 7 years ago
International metal project, Them, will embark on a first tour in 2017. The band's lineup consists of stellar musicians from around the globe: Mike LePond / bass (Symphony X), Kevin Talley / drums (Suffocation), Markus Ullrich / guitars (Lanfear, Septagon), Markus Johansson / guitars (Sylencer), Richie Seibel / keyboards (Lanfear) and Troy Norr "KK Fossor" / vocals (Coldsteel).
Their debut concept album, Sweet Hollow, was released in September 2016 via Empire Records. A lyric video for the song "Dead Of Night" can be found below.
Them was originally formed in 2008 by vocalist Troy Norr as a King Diamond tribute band, performing for three and a half years with over 20 shows including performances with Mike Wead and Hal Patino from King Diamond. After returning from several other projects, Troy started to create a concept idea in 2014 and moulded a story, band, album and show around it. The result, Sweet Hollow, offers top-notch heavy metal and chronicles the bizarre journey of a man caught between unfortunate circumstance and unspeakable evil.
