Today Finnish death/doom collective SWALLOW THE SUN are
pleased to announce a North American tour this fall supporting German metal
legends Kreator and Accept! The North American Teutonic Terror Attack will
commence on September 5, 2012 in Washington D.C. and annihilate 23 cities
throughout the U.S. and Canada. Additional support will come from Canadian
death metallers Blackguard. Exclusive internet pre-sale tickets are available
online at EnterTheVault.com through May 26. General tickets go on
sale May 27 through all regular ticketing outlets.
On their fifth stateside tour, SWALLOW THE SUN will
bring the fruits of their latest offering, Emerald Forest and the Blackbird,
set for North American release through Spinefarm Records U.S. later this year.
Noted by Global Domination for its juggling of “disparate elements such as
beautiful melody, lumbering, doomy riffs, black/death-growling, and a mood of
gothy melancholy in such a way that no one aspect ever comes to overshadow the
others,” the 10-track recording entered the official chart in Finland at
position No. 2 upon its European release. Emerald Forest and the
Blackbird was recorded during September and October 2011 by Mikko
Karmila (Nightwish, Amorphis, Children Of Bodom) at Drumforest Studios in
Viitasaari and Sonic Pump 2 in Helsinki by Hannu Honkonen at Noisework Studios,
also in Helsinki. The effort was mixed by Hiili Hiilesmaa (Him, Apocalyptica,
Amorphis, Moonspell) and mastered by Mika Jussila (Nightwish, Amorphis,
Sentenced) at Finnvox Studios. Check out the video for “Cathedral Walls”
featuring a guest vocal appearance by Nightwish singer Anette Olzon at THIS LOCATION.
