Undeath announces Tour Dates with Kruelty, Gates To Hell, and more
Ahead of their upcoming album’s release (More Insane – out October 4th), Undeath will hit the road this fall for a North American headliner, featuring Kruelty, Gates To Hell, plus rotating openers (Tribal Gaze and Torture) as support. “We’re so excited to announce our first ever full-US headlining tour, coming this Fall!” comments Undeath.”We’ve been lucky enough to co-headline with and support so many amazing bands in the past few years, but this tour will be the first time we’ve struck out on our own headliner across the country. We’re bringing along some amazing bands in Kruelty (all the way from Tokyo!), Gates To Hell (our good friends from Louisville), Tribal Gaze on the first half of the tour (one of our favorite current death metal bands) and Tortureon the second half (a band we’ve been dying to play with since we first heard them). This is going to be one crazy ass motherfucking slobberknocker of a sicko death metal tour and will unquestionably be the best distorted guitar music tour of the year. Run, don’t walk, get your ass to a show and come party with all of us.”

Undeath revealed details for their third album, More Insane, due to be released on October 4th via Prosthetic Records. The US death metal band also dropped lead single, “Brandish the Blade,” with the video available for viewing here.
Previous album It’s Time… To Rise from the Grave caught a wave of acclaim. On More Insane, Undeath — featuring Kyle Beam (guitars), Alexander Jones (vocals), Tommy Wall (bass), Jared Welch (guitars), and Matt Browning (drums) — feast on the rotten flesh of brutality, complexity, and depravity.
If the gross-out teenage hallucinations of It’s Time… rattled death metal’s caved-in cranium, More Insane explodes with even sicker vistas. Lyrically, Undeath pick up, in part, where “Necrobionics” and “Enhancing the Dead” left off. Indeed, the undead armies (from space) cause more carnage in “Sutured for War” and “Dead from Beyond.” Elsewhere, the New Yorkers summon nightmares from video games (Bloodborne, etc.) on “Cramped Caskets (Necrology),” turn to high fantasy on “Brandish the Blade,” and man-eating laboratory demons on “Disattachment of a Prophylactic in the Brain.” Unifying themes of murder, weirdos, psychotic people (who kill others), and more lunacy prevail on More Insane. Browning’s eye-catching cover art of a splayed head atop an optic white background engulfs all in graphic, blood-soaked glory.
The recording of More Insane was hearsed over to American studio wizard Mark Lewis (Cannibal Corpse, The Black Dahlia Murder) at Mark Lewis Audio in Nashville, TN. Undeath and Lewis met after a gig in Alabama. They became fast friends. With the basics out of the way, the group set up a month-long residency at Lewis’s studio to nail down More Insane. Undeath and Lewis co-produced, while Lewis handled engineering, mixing, and mastering. “Brandish the Blade,” “Disputatious Malignancy,” “Dead from Beyond,” and the title track are pure, unyielding death brought to horrifying reality by a kick-ass production.
