FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Polish extreme metal titans BEHEMOTH are set to make their much anticipated return to the U.S. as part of the Un-Natural Born Killers tour featuring Six Feet Under, Skinless and Black Dahlia Murder. The Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles and XM Radio sponsored trek will kick off on October 16th in Tampa, FL and end in late November. BEHEMOTH developed a strong U.S. presence this past spring on tour with Deicide, along with appearances on the Blackest of the Black and Metal Gods 2003 festivals.
Nergal (vocals/guitars) further describes his excitement over the upcoming tour, "We're extremely excited about coming back to the U.S. There's been some confusion about our touring plans, but we decided to go on with Six Feet Under and make another round across the States... We will be touring with a slightly different lineup. Unfortunately, we have to go without our new bass player Orion, but luckily we will have some help from our friend, Istvan, from the California black metal band Rise. It's going to be our third tour in the U.S. and it feels really great to do it again. The shows we did along with Deicide, Danzig, Nile and Halford earlier this year proved that this is a perfect territory for spreading our message and music. If everything goes fine, we'll be playing more than 30 shows this time.Thank you for all the support. You deserve the best and you will get it! Stay strong and await the divination."
An EP titled Conjuration - featuring one unreleased track from sessions for their latest release Zos Kia Cultus, two covers (Nine Inch Nails and Venom) and seven live tracks - is set to be released later this year. This EP will be limited to a pressing of 2000 copies and will be available at all of their upcoming shows.
