Ov Sulfur, the blackened deathcore outfit fronted by ex-Suffokate vocalist Ricky Hoover, will be hitting the road with German deathcore outfit Mental Cruelty for a North American co-headlining tour early next year. Ghost Bath and Extermination Dismemberment round out the bill for that run, tickets for which are now on sale.
Ov Sulfur commented:
“We’re beyond excited (no pun intended) to announce the ‘Beyond the Eternal Tour,’ which we’re co-headlining with labelmates Mental Cruelty. Both bands deliver blackened deathcore with ferocity. Our metalcore inflections are complemented by their extra-blackened leanings for a bill that’s devilishly divine.
To elevate the tour, we got depressive post-black metallers Ghost Bath, whose genre agnostic take on their umbrella genre is not far off from ours, as well as Extermination Dismemberment: one of the heaviest slamming deathcore bands on the planet all the way from Belarus!
If you like your deathcore with a heavy heeping of brutality and an undercurrent of blasphemy—both lyrically and with (lack of) regard to musical rules—this is THE tour for you. Come join us BEYOND THE ETERNAL!”
Mental Cruelty added:
“The time has come! Mental Cruelty will finally come back to North America with one of the sickest line-ups to date, and we couldn’t be happier about it. On board and co-headlining we have label mates Ov Sulfur, who will bless you with heavy riffs and crushing breakdowns that will rock your socks off.
In addition, we are more then happy to have Ghost Bath and Extermination Dismemberment on the line-up as well. While Ghost Bath will take you to another planet with their haunting atmosphere and emotional-driven melodies, Extermination Dismemberment will make sure to leave nothing but devastation behind them—so be sure to bring some extra underwear, just in case.
As for us, we are beyond excited to finally show you our latest record ‘Zwielicht‘ live, and we can’t fucking wait to see all of you again after 4 years of not touring North America. (For those keeping track, that means ‘A Hill to Die Upon‘ has yet to bless your stage, too, so expect some of that!)
If you are into blast beats, devastating breakdowns, haunting atmospheres and heavy-as-fuck riffs, you don’t want to miss this. This will be a tour to be remembered, that’s for sure!”
