the Norwegian band featuring former EMPEROR members Samoth (guitar) and Trym (drums), will support ARCH ENEMY on their upcoming European tour. The dates, scheduled to begin February 17 in Cologne, Germany mark the band's first European tour in support of their current album, “Aeon”, and will follow their first trip to Japan as headliners for the ninth “Extreme the Dojo” festival.
Commented Samoth, “Needless to say we are very excited about Japan. We never even got to go there with EMPEROR so this is definitely a big highlight for us. And after several attempts we have finally finally confirmed a full European tour, and it's a good one too. STAMPIN' GROUND will also be on the bill with us and ARCH ENEMY, so it should make a strong package, covering several aspects of metal.”
