Black Tusk have laid out the dates for a Western North American tour this summer. The sludge metal outfit will be sharing stages with Hoaxed, Blood Star and Upon A Fields Whisper on select dates of that run. Black Tusk have also just put up a new single titled “Far From Light“, which is the second track they’ve chosen to roll out from their new EP, “Systems Of Solitude“. Commenting on their inspirations for that, the group offered:
“‘Far From Light‘ is a commentary about religion and the powers that control the policies that shape our lives. Its about not blindly following religions that teach intolerance, hate and fear, and rather to think for yourself.”
“Systems Of Solitude” is on schedule for a June 10th release date. As for this newly announced tour, see below:
