Touring in support of their Lawless Darkness full-length released via Season Of Mist earlier this year, the wild ride commenced in Pittsburgh on November 6 and has been sweeping its way across the country with relentless fury.  Support bands, Goatwhore and Black Anvil, have helped make the tour package one of the most pummeling (and talked about) of the year.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSaid WATAIN in a collective statement: &#8220;The Lawless Darkness Tour marches on relentlessly across the States. Greetings to the legions of hungry fiends that have come out so far, and to all of you who have brought us gifts and artifacts for the stage, you will not be forgotten! It has been a wild ride, yet it is far from over&#8230; Denial of the flesh; Denial of the cunt; we are the cold seed of Satanas!&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/>\nCheck out footage from the band&#8217;s Seattle performance <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/earsplitpr\/blog\/541000561\">HERE<\/a>.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nWATAIN&#8217;s final U.S. performance of the tour will happen this Thursday at Santos Party House in New York City. Following the show is a scheduled meet and greet at Duff&#8217;s in Brooklyn.

Recorded at Necromorbus Studio (Deathspell Omega, Funeral Mist, Ondskapt, etc.) in Alvik, Sweden with cover art by Zbigniew M. Bielak, the record continues to reap critical accolades from press nationwide and abroad. The band scored cover spots in some of metal\u2019s most esteemed publications including Decibel, Terrorizer, and Subterranea (Metal Hammer\u2019s extreme metal supplement) and the &#8220;Reaping Death,&#8221; single was certified gold in Sweden for sales in excess of 10,000 copies.
