Housecore Records thrashers WARBEAST are
set to head out on tour with DOWN next week! The band will
join the U.S. tour on September 18th in their hometown of Fort
Worth, TX and will travel with DOWN and label mates haarp with
a few shows with special guests Pentagram and Saint
Vitus and others until October 2nd in Charlotte, NC.
The band is also pleased to announce upcoming European tour
dates with DOWN. They will then continue the tour in November with
several stops in Germany.DOWN vocalist Philip Anselmo had some
words to add about bringing WARBEAST on the road.
“I am extremely pleased we (Down) are bringing the
band WARBEAST with us to Europe. They are what I'd call
"pure" Thrash Metal, in a classic Dallas/Ft. Worth style,” states
Anselmo. “These guys are tailor made for our brothers and sisters across the
pond, and I expect them to fucking kick some almighty ass, and gain a shitload
of new fans.”
“This has been a goal for each one of us from our earliest
bands and from the inception WARBEAST,” states WARBEAST vocalist
Bruce Corbitt. “Here in the USA, many of us are envious of the European metal
scene. So going on a European Tour with our bro's in DOWN is
even better than a dream-come-true for us. It honestly feels unreal and surreal
that this is actually going to happen. Special thanks to our label Houscecore
Records for believing in us in the first place!”
