(October 5th, 2017) – Seattle, WA’s delectably devastating doom metal duo Bell Witch will join French doom metalists/labelmates Monarch! for a stretch of US dates this December. The tour will commence on December 1st and run through December 7th, with additional performances to be announced in the coming days. This freshly-announced trek follows Bell Witch’s previously announced- an steadily approaching- North American tour with Denver doom troupe Primitive Man from October 25th to November 17th. A comprehensive list of confirmed dates cna be found below.
Additionally, Bell Witch will bring their destructive odes to the stages of Roadburn Festival 2018. Set to take place in Tilburg, The Netherlands, the band will perform two sets, the first on Saturday April 21st at the 013 venue and Sunday, April 22nd at Het Patronaat. However, the band’s onslaught doesn’t stop there: the duo will be recreating their soon-to-be-released, eighty-three-minute offering, Mirror Reaper, in its crushingly exquisite entirety. The feat requires the input of honorary member, vocalist Erik Moggridge (Aerial Ruin), who will be joining the band to complete the performance. Expect his fragile, yet evocative vocal style to lend an even more ghastly and ethereal quality to Bell Witch’s already otherworldly sound- a sonic treat that not a single metalhead should dare pass up!
