Swallow the Sun Announce US Tour Dates; “Woven Into Sorrow” Video Posted

Swallow The Sun

Before everything went to shit, I was going to go see Swallow the Sun at Dingbatz in Clifton, New Jersey. And after the pandemic hit and of course the tour got canceled like everything else, I thought to myself, “well there’s no way that chance will ever come again. A band coming from Finland to play 20 minutes from my house at a club with a big goofy bat painted on the back of the stage.”

And here we are. I’ll be honest, playing Dingbatz, on a weeknight, a few days after Thanksgiving, does not sound to me like it’s going to be a banger night for the tour. Maybe not packed. But you know what? I’m gonna go. I’ll probably buy merch too, unless it’s all longsleeves or whatever. I’ll go because it’s a show the loss of which I was feeling for more than a year (yes, really; I’ve been listening to this band since their first record) and because they have a new album coming out and I’m looking forward to that too. There’s a video for one of the songs at the bottom of this post. It sounds a little like Queensryche early on, but they do well with it.

So yeah. I’m glad this tour and this show are happening:

    That is a great eclectic line-up. Last Abigail Williams record was excellent and Wilderun doing some cool prog metal stuff.
