CARDIAC ARREST Gear Up For Release Of New Album, Campaign For Death Metal Purity Tour
May 23, 2010, 14 years ago
On June 8th, Chicago's CARDIAC ARREST will release their Ibex Moon Records debut, Haven For The Insane. The band's third full-length, Haven For The Insane "promises to deliver the kind of aural pummeling that only the most extreme brand of death metal can provide," according to a press release.
Drummer "Grindhead" Jim Deabenderfer, regarding the release of Haven For The Insane: "We are very proud of this record, and couldn't be happier with the initial press response. The metal community has been very supportive of us in the past, but the reception of HFTI so far has been a welcome surprise. Die hard CA fans should love what we have in store for them with this one, and new listeners are also in for a treat. This isn't a death metal record for the squeamish - it's a statement that aggressive, low end death metal is alive and well. Ibex Moon has put together a phenomenal package for the disc, with a bonus DVD that we think is a step above most of the ones being put out these days. We hope everyone enjoys this release, and we look forward to a future filled with ROT."
Shortly after the release of Haven For The Insane, Cardiac Arrest will join Ibex Moon Records labelmates GRAVEHILL and HOD on the Campaign For Death Metal Purity 2010 tour.
Guitarist Tom Knizner had this to say regarding the upcoming tour: "We are looking forward to tearing it up across the U.S. with our brothers in Gravehill and HOD. Although we've played many shows together before with both bands, having all three bands tour together is something that has been discussed for quite some time now, but didn't happen for one reason or another. Now that it finally is, be prepared for a true death metal assault. Looking forward to returning to the cities we have played in the past and cities we have not yet played and hanging out with everyone. "
Deabenderfer adds: "This tour is a great way to say thank you to the CA fans in the US that put us where we are today, and the perfect platform for us to infect a whole new crop of death metal fans. Gravehill and HOD are truly top tier acts, and we are honored to be sharing the experience with them. Do NOT miss this."
