The Sign Of Hell Tour 2011 is a joint project of two main bands in black and death metal! Unholy GORGOROTH and uncompromising VADER will join their powers and will go on a massive concert tour involving over 45 shows. The bands will set off at the end of October and come back right before Christmas.

According to a press release, "such a long and immense tour hasn't been seen in Europe so far - all fans of Gorgoroth and Vader should start preparing for a magnificent feast! It is a completely one-off occasion as both bands will promote their newest albums and they've already announced new concert sets. Gorgoroth will play some of their material from Under The Sign Of Hell released by Regain Records and Vader will present the new songs from Welcome To The Morbid Reich released by Nuclear Blast. The tour will be joined by additional two or three bands. More information on this event soon!"

Vader have finished work on their latest album, Welcome To The Morbid Reich, which will be released in Europe on August 13th by Nuclear Blast Records. Street date for North America is expected to be September 13th.
