DEPTHS
REVELATION
NEW ZEALAND ALBUM RELEASE TOUR
NOVEMBER 2012
WITH SPECIAL GUESTS:
FOR ALL ETERNITY (SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA)
“Bringing a modern, aggressive approach to Death Metal, Palmerston North based Depths have been making their mark on the New Zealand heavy music scene since their inception with their crushing sound and passionate, pulverizing live performance instantly showing the nation that they are an unnerving force to be reckoned with.
After countless tours up and down the country, supporting numerous international acts including Psycroptic, We Came As Romans, Cruel Hand, Northlane, and Dream On Dreamer, they proved their position as one of New Zealand's hardest working metal acts and were signed by Deadboy Records at the end of 2011.
Shortly after, the band re-released their mini album ‘Resurgence’ with a bonus music video for the devastating track ‘Of Nothing’ which went on to be featured on national television as well as appearing on the soundtrack to the FMX JAM 2 DVD which was released with 40,000 copies of Crusty Demons’ own Crusty Magazine.
Early 2012 saw a brand new single ‘Illumination’ hit the number 1 spot on the iTunes metal chart and also sit on the top 10 Rock chart upon it’s release continuing to generate more hype and interest in the band in the realm of modern metal.
This October marks the release of the highly anticipated studio album ‘Revelation’ which is a step forward for the band in every direction, bringing even more brutality and intensity to their mammoth sound.
Having already chalked up an impressive summer schedule including trans-tasman dates marking their first Australian visit as well as dates supporting legendary USA act Between The Buried And Me and also Australian heroes Parkway Drive and I Killed The Prom Queen, this is definitely the heavy breakthrough act to keep your eyes on.
Early November sees the band headline five shows in support of the brand new record 'Revelation' across four major north island markets with support from Sydney's For All Eternity.
Since their formation in 2008, For All Eternity have been hard at work, touring relentlessly across Australia earning the support of countless fans both at home and abroad.
Their self-titled debut EP released in 2009 gained much attention and propelled the band to the forefront of the national live circuit.
Creating intricate melodies and insane metallic riffs coupled with floor-shaking double kicks, For All Eternity never fail to completely deliver their undying passion for music, epitomised in their cutting-edge, thunderous sound; a perfect balance of both melodic and technical modern metalcore.
For All Eternity released their long-awaited debut studio album 'Beyond The Gates' on August 24th, 2012 on Taperjean Records / Shock and quickly topped the Australian iTunes metal chart, a tribute to their success and growth as one of the rising stars of the Australian hardcore / metal scene.
The band joined the roster of The Artery Foundation in 2012 for worldwide management alongside the likes of Asking Alexandria, Unearth, A Skylit Drive and Motionless In White.
Boasting an impressive tour / support history alongside the likes of US bands For Today, My Children My Bride, Texas in July and Underoath, For All Eternity bring their exciting live show to New Zealand before once again venturing across Australia, this time sharing the road and stage with California's most infamous I Wrestled A Bear Once and rising Aussie heroes In Hearts Wake.
Do not pass up the opportunity to catch this exciting double bill at a venue near you this November.
