AVATAR have announced new U.S. tour dates starting this fall.
The dates will serve as the last time the band sees American soil while supporting the “Hail The Apocalypse” record (reviewed HERE). “We are heading towards the final curtain call of the apocalypse,” says frontman Johannes Eckerström.
The band plans to begin work on a new album at the end of the year, with a release planned for 2016. Eckerström continues, “The hymns will be played one more time before we close this chapter and you need to be there. Destruction and decay is best viewed from a front row seat and as always, we intend to mix things up bring the freaky in ways we haven’t before.”
Support will come from Huntress, Gemini Syndrome, and First Decree. The new Huntress album “Static” will be released on September 25th, 2015 on Napalm Records.
