Hello everyone! I’m on tour now. DAATH is traveling the United States and Canada this summer on the Conquer and Curse tour which features Goatwhore, Abigail Williams, Abysmal Dawn, Success Will Write Apocalypse Across The Sky, and us. My blog isn’t going to become a tour blog, but I do feel that its my duty to discuss amazing and fucked up things when they happen. And they do happen when you’re on the road.

There is no news this year I have been as happy to report as this.

All of the bands on this summer’s Conquer & Curse tour – Goatwhore, Abysmal Dawn, Daath, Abigail Williams and SWWAATS (I’m way too lazy to type out their full name, even if I could have totally typed out their full name in the time it took me to write about how I’m too lazy to type out their full name) – are having a pizza party at Criminal Records in Atlanta this Wednesday, June 24, at 6 p.m.

And Goatwhore’s Ben Falgoust is the DJ.

MetalSucks and Metal Blade Records are teaming up to give away one ticket for every stop of this summer’s Goatwhore / Daath / Abigail Williams / Abysmal Dawn and Success Will Write Apocalypse Across the Sky tour! What we’ve heard so far of the new Goatwhore record Carving Out the Eyes of God fucking rips; that shindiggy comes out June 23rd. And we’ve made no secret about how much we love the new Daath record The Concealers; that shit is criminally good. And with the other three bands on the bill you’ve got a nice, well-rounded tour package there with a bit of something for everyone.

All you have to do to win is email goatwhoretickets [at] metalsucks.net as follows; in the subject line, write GOATWHORE TICKETS / CITY, STATE / DATE OF SHOW, filling in the details for the show you’d like to attend. In the body of the email include your FULL BIRTH NAME, as winners names will be added to Goatwhore’s guest list at the show to be claimed by presenting ID. Those who do not follow these instructions precisely will be disqualified from the contest. One winner per city will be drawn at random and contacted by a Metal Blade Records representative two days prior to the show.

The tour kicks off June 25th in Jacksonville, FL and wraps up August 9th in Amarillo, TX; check out the full list of dates after the jump, then enter for your chance to win.

That’s the question my girlfriend asked me while reading a press release about Psyopus over my shoulder.

Sigh. The joys of dating a non-metalhead.

ANYWAY, what said press release told me is that Psyopus will be heading out on tour at the end of this summer with Fuck The Facts, War From A Harlots Mouth, and Success Will Write Apocalypse Across The Sky. I mean, Success Will Write Apocalypse Across The Sky is possibly the dumbest name ever (and the initials spell SWWAATS, which is odd), but I don’t know their music, so for now I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt.

ANYWAY, below, check out Psyopus’ video for “Pig Keeper’s Daughter,” and then, after the jump, get the tour itinerary for “The Grinding Into Cataclysm Tour.”
