Los Angeles-based metallers WINDS OF PLAGUE are now back in the studio recording a new album, The Great Stone War, with producer Daniel Castleman.

The band recently confirmed their appearance on this year’s Summer Slaughter tour alongside SUFFOCATION, NECROPHAGIST, DARKEST HOUR and others. However, a big surprise has been in the works and Winds Of Plague are now excited to reveal that they will be touring alongside HATEBREED and CHIMAIRA throughout August.

Vocalist Johnny Plague comments: “In a good amount of interviews I have done, I have been asked the question ‘What bands would you want to tour with?’ I always reply with a very short list and Hatebreed is always a part of my answer. I have grown up listening to Hatebreed. Their music has gotten me through some hard times and has been a big inspiration on my life so words can’t truly express how honored I feel to be invited on the road with them.”
