UNEXPECT planning European tour in late 2008
Montreal's dynamic and unmatched classical/black metal act UNEXPECT, who are getting ready to tour
North America in January, are planning a European tour in late 2008.
In an update, the band posts: "Move that bamboo. Thoughts are coming. Ooooooohh! Here's a good one! We'll finally cross over the Atlantic pond,
set foot upon the Ancient Continent and eat all their food! Yes! A tour in Europe is being organized for the end of 2008 alongside France's
Sebkha Chott. Anyone interested in booking us over there should contact this email : booking@ammd.net
In A Flesh Aquarium has been released in Europe recently and it's already accumulating great reviews that we'll put online soon
enough if my pancreas stops talking to me. I just hate it when my inner organs start to chat about the similitudes of Wagner and
Chuck Norris or other stray ideas in the same vein.
On another note, we've been invited to the FMPM in Montreal on September 14, 2008. This progressive music Festival featuring local
and international acts is at its 3rd year of existence and is a must for any progressive/evolutive music fans...and a couple of shows
have been added/updated to the upcoming tour with Trail of Tears, Cellador & Echoes of Eternity (dates below) - See you soon!"
In other news, the band was recently nominated for 'Best Metal Album of the Year' at the 7th Annual Independent Music Awards.
