News : Encircling Sea heading on tour with Funeral Moon

By on April 4, 2015

It’s not often that Melbourne’s Encircling Sea hit the stage, let alone head interstate, but next month they’ll be teaming up with Adelaide black metal band Funeral Moon for a tour.

Funeral Moon’s recently released Sans Succubus EP, featuring artwork by Encircling Sea’s Dase Beard, will be available on the tour, or digitally through FALSExIDOL Records.

“Dedicating years to refine their musical craft of ambient black metal, richly grounded in the ecology of Australia’s unique landscapes, Encircling Sea return to perform new and old material in a short reprieve from life on the land and in the concrete wastelands.

Joining them on this tour in the dead of 2015 are Adelaide’s Funeral Moon. In their third year of existence and with a new album, Sans Succubus, out through FALSExIDOL Records, Funeral Moon are pleased to finally hit the asphalt along the east coast. Playing black metal with deep connections to crust, punk and the ‘Other’, Funeral Moon are stripped down to the bones, exposed and ready to blow. For legions of Darkthrone, Impaled Nazarene and Wolves in The Throne Room.”
