LORD DYING PROGRESSIVE SLUDGE UNIT ANNOUNCES NORTH AMERICAN HEADLINING TOUR

CANADIAN DATES IN JUNE

MYSTERIUM TREMENDUM NEARS RELEASE
VIA ENTERTAINMENT ONE

"...its slow build into soaring melodies and heavier sludge is extremely gratifying, feeling like a journey was accomplished over the song's runtime." – Decibel

"...full of emotional intensity and some of the bands most nuanced performances to date... This record is triumphant and powerful, the next step forward for a metal band looking to find their way after years of silence." – Two Guys Metal Reviews

Toronto, ON – April 5, 2019 – Progressive sludge unit, Lord Dying, has confirmed a North American headlining tour. Scheduled to commence May 8th, the journey will wind its way through more than two dozen cities, including five Canadian stops, and come to a close on June 8th in the band's home city of Portland, Oregon. Support will be provided by psychedelic doom duo Year Of The Cobra. See all confirmed dates below.

Lord Dying will be touring in support of their impending new full-length, Mysterium Tremendum, set for worldwide release on April 26th via Entertainment One (eOne). Captured at Los Angeles' West Valley Recording Studios in August of 2018 with producer Mike Plotnikoff (Fear Factory, In Flames), mastered by Howie Weinberg (Slayer, Nirvana, Pantera, Red Hot Chili Peppers), and swathed in the striking planetary landscape-inspired cover art of Steve R. Dodd, the band's first full-length in four years is a monolithic, riff-heavy concept album delivering eleven heaving tracks that explore the many facets of dying and what may or may not exist in the afterlife. Emotionally nourishing both musically and lyrically, Mysterium Tremendum's exploration of death goes far beyond the mere longing for it in order to see what lies beyond (Lacerated Psyche is about the death of guitarist Chris Evans' sister). There are endless layers to it; you might even find parallels between the record's concept and life itself. It's a journey. And in their quest to pursue death, Lord Dying has themselves found new life.

Lord Dying's Mysterium Tremendum will be released on CD, double LP, and digital formats. For preorder options and to stream latest single, Freed From The Pressures Of Time, visit smarturl.it/LordDyingMT.
