The Sword’s fourth album, Apocryphon, will be out on October 22nd. Fans will have one week to digest it before the band heads out on a tour that will take them up until almost Christmas. Gypsyhawk will be direct support for the tour, and the band will be bringing two relatively unknown Austin bands to split the rest of the tour. Eagle Claw will be on the bill through November 24 and American Sharks will be playing from 12/2-18. Meanwhile, we’re waiting with baited breath for the album, which was produced by J. Robbins.
