| MORTAL SIN Return From a Successful Tour Of Europe With OVERKILL. |
|
|
 |
Legendary Australian heavy metal band MORTAL SIN have sent in the following update to HailMetal.Com e'zine regarding their tour of Europe with OVERKILL:
"The month of March will be remembered by MORTAL SIN as the most successful venture away from their home territory ever when they supported U.S. thrash legends OVERKILL through 15 shows in Europe. Beginning with two Metalmania Festivals headlined by MEGADETH in The Czech Republic and Poland, the tour then rolled into the former capital Munich. With many of the shows being sold out, Overkill vocalist Bobby Elsworth paid tribute to Mortal Sin as "a perfect match up for Overkill, a great package for promoters...- we tried for months to get Exodus as the support, but you know what? Fuck Exodus, Mortal Sin have done way better than we would have hoped Exodus would do!" Overkill made Mortal Sin more than welcome and fun times were had in each of the cities we played."
"By the time the tour reached Essen (home town of Kreator), the crowds were getting louder and louder for Mortal Sin. It was like a time machine had transported us all back to 1987 - wristbands, denim jackets, hair flying everywhere and bodies landing on the stage non stop throughout the Mortal Sin and Overkill sets. In Gothenburg, Sweden on the last show of the Overkill tour Mortal Sin were invited up on stage to sing "Old School" with Bobby and the gang, such was the respect shown - the offer was accepted and the respect returned!'
"From Sweden Mortal Sin travelled North to Oslo in Norway for the 2008 Inferno Festival, one of the most important Scandinavian metal festivals, this year featuring Onslaught, Behemoth, Vreid, Gorgoroth, Satyricon, Unleashed, 1349, Overkill and Destruction among others. At minus 4 degrees, it was the coldest night of the tour and the streets were covered in Ice. Mortal Sin opened the main stage in the Rockefeller Centre and won over the predominantly Black Metal crowd with a blistering set which was recorded on CD and will be soon be released as an official Live Bootleg. It was a brilliant end to a brilliant tour."

| LEICOHTICA & NEVETHERYN Announce Joint Australian Tour. |
|
|
 |
SMiM writes "Australia's multi-layered gothic black metal band LEICOHTICA and unconventional epic post-rock/metal act NEVETHERYM have announced Australian mini-tour dates for March/April 2008. The groups will be supporting their latest releases, "The Balance of Fire" and "Rendezvous", respectively.
Mar 28 @ The Brisbane Hotel, Hobart, TAS
Mar 29 @ The Central Club, Melbourne, VIC
Mar 30 @ Newmarket Hotel, Bendigo, VIC
Apr 02 @ The Bass Bar, Wagga Wagga, NSW
Apr 03 @ The Basement, Wagga Wagga, NSW
Apr 04 @ The Basement, Canberra, ACT
Apr 05 @ The Harp, Sydney, NSW
Apr 06 @ The Grand Hotel, NSW
According to LEICOHTICA's official bio, the group's latest CD has been described by critics as "defiantly beautiful and angelically graceful whilst simultaneously bearing the full force of hell down upon its listeners." To get this sound the band uses soprano, mezzo-soprano and baritone operatic voices with crushing death metal growls, furious double kickers and devastating guitar riffage to create its disobediently eclectic "beauty-and-the-beast" style.
