Tampa death metal icons OBITUARY will bring their
brutal wares to the stage this Fall on a short series of live assaults. The tour
begins with a pair of back-to-back shows at Brooklyn, New York's Saint Vitus Bar
on October 9 and 10, before flattening nine more venues through October 20.
Having been holed-up in their own Redneck Studios the last few weeks penning the
follow-up to 2009's punishing Darkest
Day full-length (2009), the
shows serve as a temporary writing break.
Elaborates drummer Donald Tardy: "We have been busting our
asses in the studio, having a blast and writing new material. Twelve songs are
done and ready to be recorded but we want a monster album for our fans so we are
working on a few more to make this record huge! We will continue writing until
October when we will take a break from the studio and new music and go destroy
the Trois-Rivieres Metalfest with
Hatebreed and crush the US."

The as-yet-untitled
full-length will be recorded with the KickStarter funding help of their legion
of dedicated fans around the globe. The campaign, rooted in an
honest desire to produce the next record on their own terms, is in its final week.
"We've been creating death metal since 1984,"
the band comments. "It's who we are...it's in our blood. If
there's one thing that we've learned touring all these years, it's that
OBITUARY fans are among the most loyal and supportive motherfuckers
in the world! We've been trying to find better ways to engage with and
give back to our fans. Over the past couple of years, we've streamed concerts
live from around the globe, given away tons of merch packages and dozens of
all-access backstage passes. It's inspiring to see and share in your
excitement about OBITUARY, and the inspiration that provides keeps us
going. This is about putting our trust, our music, our career, and our new
album in fans' hands! We want to make music for the people who
still come out to shows, still sport our gear, and still have a Slowly We
Rot cassette in their car." For OBITUARY KickStarter info, point your
