WATAIN
Black metal kings WATAIN will join the first edition of the Decibel Magazine tour. This earth-scorching line-up sees WATAIN team up with BEHEMOTH, THE DEVIL’S BLOOD and IN SOLITUDE.
It only makes sense that Decibel would present a tour package with a sense of integrity, purpose and history. „It is a joint force of artistic adversity and sinister creativity,” assures WATAIN frontman Erik Danielsson, „which makes me think of the glorious days when bands like VENOM, METALLICA, EXODUS and SLAYER toured together like a great middle finger raised towards their sheep-minded contemporaries.” The Decibel Magazine Tour begins in April.
Fifteen premium packages will be available in each city that include your ticket to the show, a tour T-shirt, a tour poster and a super-exclusive „Skip the Line” pass to move you to the front when doors open. The price of this package is less than you would spend on a ticket and a tour shirt at the show! More details, including tour dates, venues and ticket info can be found at www.decibelmagazinetour.com. Every ticket purchased through Top Spin will come with a commemorative laminate, and all fans that purchase their ticket through Top Spin will be entered to win an ESP Guitar.
WATAIN will also be part of Australia’s Soundwave Festival in February. The tour will start on February 25th and is shaping up as follows:
25 Feb 12 Brisbane (AU) SoundWave
26 Feb 12 Sydney (AU) SoundWave
02 Mar 12 Melbourne (AU) SoundWave
03 Mar 12 Adelaide (AU) SoundWave
05 Mar 12 Perth (AU) SoundWave
WATAIN’s whole b(l)ack catalogue and official band merchandising are available on Season of Mist’s e-shop.
