INTO ETERNITY Checks In From Summer Slaughter Canada; Posts New Track Online
Canadian progressive metal titans INTO ETERNITY are in the midst of an
extremely successful run as part of Summer Slaughter Canada, which also
features Necrophagist, Dying Fetus, Beneath the Massacre and
Whitechapel. This trek marked the kick off of their worldwide touring
cycle for their much anticipated fifth full-length The Incurable
Tragedy, which is slated for a Sept. 2nd release in North America,
Europe on Aug. 25th and Japan on Aug. 27th. Look for the group to embark
on a massive North American tour with the Matt Barlow-fronted Iced Earth
this fall.
INTO ETERNITY just posted the riveting new track "Time Immemorial" on
their MySpace page www.myspace.com/officialintoeternity, so head over
now to check it out. The band recently shot a new video for the track
with acclaimed director Craig Bernard (Theory of a Deadman). Expect the
clip to premiere next month.
Troy Bleich (bass) further comments, "This tour has just started and
already the chaos has begun! We left Regina in a clusterfuck and managed
to only leave behind one wallet and a Blackberry! We were lucky enough
to realize this two hours in on our 37-hour death-trek to Montreal, but
luckily, we're heading back that way in a few days, so we'll be up to
full power in no time.
"We ended up making it to Montreal just in time for our video shoot for
'Time Immemorial.' The location was awesome, as it was apparently a
haunted house. Didn't see any ghosts, though. That would've been cool,
as it might have filled in the 13 hours of time spent waiting for Stu's
acting career to take flight! In all seriousness, it was a very cool
experience and I think the video is going to be awesome. Thanks to the
director Craig and the rest of the crew for making it a time that was
truly...immemorial.
"After that, we headed off to the first show of the Summer Slaughter
Tour in Quebec City. Regardless of the insanity of nine different bands
with too much gear, the show went off with out a hitch and I think
everyone had a killer time. Thanks to all our fans that came out and
showed support! It's already apparent that all the bands are wicked cool
and that this will be a killer tour. We're looking forward to the rest
of the shows."
The Incurable Tragedy is the first INTO ETERNITY album to feature Justin
Bender (guitars) and Steve Bolognese (drums), who came aboard shortly
after the group finished Gigantour '06. The album can be pre-ordered now
