BLACK BREATH Confirm Mexico and Japan Dates


Following their recent rampage across Europe for several weeks, Washington's whiplash-inducers BLACK BREATH have just confirmed their first tours of Mexico and Japan!

Following their previously-announced headlining slot on the Southern Lord label package tour -- where BLACK BREATH will rage the U.S. for a month with support from labelmates Enabler, Burning Love and Martyrdöd and tons more -- the newest set of dates will kick off just a week later. The Seattle stormtroopers will do a trio of dates in Southern California.-- including a set at the massive 3-day Sound And Fury Festival alongside Earth Crisis, Harms Way, Xibalba, Alpha & Omega, Bane, Blacklisted, Terror, Touche Amore and tons more -- before they cross into Mexico for a five-date trek. Less than a month after the band return from the Mexico tour, the 'BREATH will trek across the globe for a five-date headlining assault on Japan!

Posters for all three tours, a killer video for "Home of the Grave" from BLACK BREATH's second LP Sentenced To Life and more can be pummeled into your receptors AT THIS LOCATION.

Sentenced To Life was released via Southern Lord in March, to an incredible amount of fan and media praise, the band's ferocious blend of death, hardcore and rock influences indisputably crushing everything in its path. With 10 tracks in under 33 minutes, conjuring the most demoralizing yet energizing d-beat injected death metal hymns from the band to date, as with their acclaimed debut full-length Heavy Breathing, BLACK BREATH recorded at God City Studios with Kurt Ballou, and had the finished product mastered by Alan Douches at West West Side.
