NAZXUL's first North American onslaught continues

Legendary Australian black metal band NAZXUL played their first American show this past weekend to a hugely receptive Maryland Death Fest crowd, and last night's performance in Brooklyn was widely remarked to be "intense." Touring in support of last year's MORIBUND-released, critically acclaimed comeback Iconoclast - called everything from "larger than life" by All Music Guide to "an album of bleakly majestic proportions" by Terrorizer - the none-more-enigmatic, long-running NAZXUL have never been ones to go the regular route: although the Maryland Death Fest performance had been planned for nearly a year, a series of guerilla-style shows have been set up recently in its wake. Thus, NAZXUL will be laying cosmic waste to the following cities + venues:

***June 4 + 5: GATHERING OF SHADOWS fest, CO -> invite only

***June 8: Salt Lake City, UT @ Bar Deluxe
666 South State St.

$10.00

***June 10: Prescott, AZ @ The Drunken Lass

***June 12: San Francisco, CA @ Thee Parkside

All the above dates + venues are CONFIRMED. Founding guitarist Adrian Henderson also had this brief, cryptic message: "Forsake God and join the blasphemous ritual. Due to overwhelming demand, all merchandise is sold out, and the exclusive North American tour 7" is selling fast."
