Mental Cruelty and Ov Sulfur to Tour North America Early Next Year
There’s a killer tour a brewin’ for next year and if you love blackened deathcore or just typically enjoy music that hits like a freight train, you’re not gonna want to miss this one. Starting next February, Ov Sulfur and Mental Cruelty will be embarking on a 27-date run through the U.S. and parts of Canada.
The tour will kick off in Mesa, Arizona on February 7 and will come to a conclusion on March 9 in Las Vegas.
Coming along with Mental Cruelty and Ov Sulfur on the tour will be Ghost Bath and Extermination Dismemberment. The tour will also mark the first time Mental Cruelty will be in North America since they released A Hill to Die Upon and Zwielicht. Likewise, it’s the first co-headlining tour for Ov Sulfur as they continue to support their debut LP The Burden Ov Faith.
“We’re beyond excited (no pun intended) to announce the ‘Beyond the Eternal Tour,’ which we’re co-headlining with labelmates Mental Cruelty. Both bands deliver blackened deathcore with ferocity. Our metalcore inflections are complemented by their extra-blackened leanings for a bill that’s devilishly divine.
“To elevate the tour, we got depressive post-black metallers Ghost Bath, whose genre agnostic take on their umbrella genre is not far off from ours, as well as Extermination Dismemberment: one of the heaviest slamming deathcore bands on the planet all the way from Belarus!
“If you like your deathcore with a heavy heeping of brutality and an undercurrent of blasphemy—both lyrically and with (lack of) regard to musical rules—this is THE tour for you. Come join us BEYOND THE ETERNAL!”
Likewise, Mental Cruelty said they were excited for the tour.
“The time has come! Mental Cruelty will finally come back to North America with one of the sickest line-ups to date, and we couldn’t be happier about it. On board and co-headlining we have label mates Ov Sulfur, who will bless you with heavy riffs and crushing breakdowns that will rock your socks off.
“In addition, we are more then happy to have Ghost Bath and Extermination Dismemberment on the line-up as well. While Ghost Bath will take you to another planet with their haunting atmosphere and emotional-driven melodies, Extermination Dismemberment will make sure to leave nothing but devastation behind them—so be sure to bring some extra underwear, just in case.
“As for us, we are beyond excited to finally show you our latest record ‘Zwielicht’ live, and we can’t fucking wait to see all of you again after 4 years of not touring North America. (For those keeping track, that means ‘A Hill to Die Upon’ has yet to bless your stage, too, so expect some of that!)
“If you are into blast beats, devastating breakdowns, haunting atmospheres and heavy-as-fuck riffs, you don’t want to miss this. This will be a tour to be remembered, that’s for sure!”
