Today was a little more tame, which is all I can ask for.

• King Woman has set July 30th as the release date for the highly anticipated sophomore album, Celestial Blues. That will be out through Relapse Records, and is available for pre-order here. Check out the clip for “Morning Star” while you’re at it.
• Red Fang have announced a U.S. tour, scheduled for this coming October and November. Support will be provided by Starcrawler, Here Lies Man, and Warish. I will definitely be attending this one, because Red Fang is awesome… and even more awesome live. And a reminder, Arrows is out this Friday, also through Relapse.
• Atreyu has also announced a fairly massive U.S. tour this coming November and December. They’ll be supported by Tetrarch, Crown The Empire, Saul, and Defying Decay. Tickets go on sale this coming Friday, but there’s always a pre-sale code for those that want it.
• We have a couple videos worth sharing today (subjective), and we’ll start with Vreid. They dropped the clip for “Dazed and Reduced”, which is taken from the recently released Wild North West, out through Season of Mist.
• And we’ll close with the video from Burning Witches. The Witch Of The North is out now through Nuclear Blast, and the new video for “We Stand As One” is available immediately below.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
