CHRISTIAN MISTRESS issue an update
Agony & Opium, the debut release from Olympia, Washington's hyped metal troupe CHRISTIAN MISTRESS will be available to the public this Tuesday, August 24th! This anticipated 6-song rager is a priority release for unpredictable metal label 20 Buck Spin -- which is also located in Olympia -- and the band has already made a fairly noticeable buzz in the underground. Their infectious blend of classic heavy metal and West Cost thrash, combined with their own organic creativity and the prominent female vocals let the band be classified as traditional as well as original.
CHRISTIAN MISTRESS will celebrate Agony & Opium's advent with a hometown record release party Friday the 27th. This will also kick off the band's heavy upcoming touring season, as today we are proud to announce their upcoming US tour this fall. Kicking off in late September, CHRISTIAN MISTRESS will embark on their first major tour, rocking almost every night for over a month in support of the album alongside Thrones (Joe Preston). Several dates are still being added and confirmed so stay tuned for updates, but the confirmed routing as of now is below. Be prepared for tour updates and more touring announcements to be made in the coming weeks and beyond.
Promos of Agony & Opium are available now, and interviews with the band are available in advance of the tour as well as in-person at the shows. Contact Earsplit right away with all requests! Check out album art, live footage and more here.
