Something great about The Sword’s new album High Country is the intensity with which its approaching, and aside from all the tracks released so far, they’ve upped the ante by announcing a tour that includes a long run through North American soil this fall.
The band had previously announced the dates for their upcoming European tour set to begin on August 21st, coinciding with the release date for the new album, and North America will be next to have some of that high sword with an impressive 50 date tour. The tour will be separated in 2 different legs with support from Kadavar and All Them Witches on the first one, with the second one complemented by fellow stoners Royal Thunder.

Black Metal enthusiast from Los Angeles who thought was a good idea to grab a camera and shoot underground shows for the hell of it. Pseudo-writer with little to no expectations of ever winning a Pulitzer but totally down to write about your unknown band if it's good to my ears.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, deep conversation, holding hands and attending Satanic music shows every now and then.
