Winds Of Plague is currently one of the hottest bands in the genre, which is further cemented by the fact that they were just hand-picked by the legendary Glenn Danzig for his 20th anniversary tour this fall. The massive North American trek, dubbed the “Blackest of The Black,” kicks off in October and also features Dimmu Borgir, Moonspell and Skeletonwitch. Look for dates to be announced in the coming weeks.
Winds Of Plague will embark on their next North American jaunt in late July as part of the “Thrash and Burn” festival that also features Darkest Hour, Parkway Drive, Misery Signals, Stick To Your Guns, Arsis, Light This City, Arsonists Get All The Girls and After The Burial so feel free to hit MySpace or MySpace.com/windsofplague to view the complete tour routing.
The group just completed a highly successful eight-week run of the U.S. on the “Metal For The Masses” tour; playing alongside some of the Century Media family’s hottest new acts, including As Blood Runs Black and Stick To Your Guns. A new video has also been shot for “The Impaler” with up-and-coming director Jake Avignone. Click below to view the making of the video and let the hilarity ensue.
Johnny (vocals) further describes his excitement: “Anytime anyone would ask me who my favorite band would be to tour with, without thought I would respond immediately with Dimmu Borgir. Well, I’m speechless over the fact that we have been invited to share the stage with Dimmu Borgir and the legendary Danzig on this year’s ‘Blackest of The Black’ tour. I still can’t fathom the thought and my head’s about to explode. After wrapping up the very successful ‘Metal For The Masses,’ tour we are eager to jump back on the road and continue the rampage. We hope to see you all soon.”
In 2008, Winds Of Plague will pave their own path of destruction unlike anyone has yet witnessed.
