Norwegian black metal overlords, VREID, will embark upon a long-anticipated North American headlining trek this August. Sponsored by Brave Words & Blood Knuckles and Metal Injection, The Black Path Of America Tour 2011 will commence on August 25 in Toronto and trample through 14 cities before coming to a ceremonious close on September 10 in San Diego. VREID will be joined by pagan black metal co-headliners Kampfar and Canadian death metal ensemble, Necronomicon.
Commented VREID bassist, Hváll: “It is with great joy we can announce our first headlining tour in North America. The Black Path Of America tour is packed with ten US and six Canadian shows. We did our first full North America tour in 2009 on the Heathen Fest, and the reaction we got was overwhelming. We had amazing shows in Montreal, Cleveland and San Francisco — to name just a few — and are glad to see all those cities plus many more on the list for our upcoming tour. Our latest album, V, is doing fantastic, and has become a monumental release for us. We can’t wait to return to the Wild West to unleash songs new and old with our own production. Joining us on this tour are our good Norwegian friends of the legendary Kampfar and Necronomicon from Canada. It’s a killer lineup, and we hope to see as many of you as possible at the shows.”
VREID will be touring in support of their fifth studio album, simply entitled V, released in North America via The End/Indie Recordings in March. The nine-track long player was produced by Hváll at his own 1184 Studio, and has been reaping critical acclaim stateside since its release.
Also. KAMPFAR vocalist DOLK is writing a book about the Norwegian black metal scene:
"This was not supposed to be revealed yet. But I decided to do so through [my] personal [online] profile. Even my bandmates don't know this yet. But I have now finally started my longtime plan to do/write a book. This has been an idea I had for ages now, due to all the questions I get from the 'media' about this theme/topic/period of time.
"I have been so tired, in a way, to tell parts of this story without being able to tell the whole story. So the book will be about the early years in black metal and about my side of the story of it all. This book will step on someone's toes, that's for sure. But it's my side of the story. This book is for those who are interested (and it's some sort of a soul and mind surfer for me personal). To the rest… Well, I don't give a fuck!! It's all very early in the process yet. But I have decided to go all the way now.
"Anyway… This has been a long process for me and a big step to make it official. Besides my woman, you are the first ones to know this at all."
Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-
