Commended by the Sleeping Shaman for their “huge prehistoric, lumbering walls of solid doom that will have even the most cold-hearted metal fan nod their head like a donkey on Mogadon, conjuring plenty of passages where the listener can lose themselves in the groove,” SONS OF TONATIUH are a three-piece from Atlanta, Georgia concentrating on the underground workings of doom, sludge and punk rock. Established in 2008, SONS OF TONATIUH have self released a 7″ (recorded by Mike Longoria of Withered with artwork by Viral Graphics out of Greece) and a 12″ (recorded by Jay Matheson at the Jam Room Studios in Columbia, South Carolina with artwork by Rodney Githens) with the latter album being picked up by Hydro-Phonic Records who then released a CD version of the full length in 2010. 2011 saw The SONS… touring extensively throughout the U.S. with various compilations created using some of their songs.
In conjunction with the release of Parade Of Sorrow, the band is set to rampage their way through 14 cities, beginning with a warm-up show tonight in Athens, Georgia. On June 22nd they’ll kick off the official tour and make their way through the ‘Carolinas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Michigan, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New York and Virginia. See confirmed dates below:
