SWORN ENEMY Announces and Comments On Upcoming Tours
New York’s SWORN ENEMY will continue to bring the metal to the masses
via a slew of North American touring activity to support the release of
their new album Maniacal. Having toured Europe, Japan and the U.S. in
recent weeks, they will continue their unrelenting schedule on April
14th with a series of headlining dates leading them immediately into a
tour with labemates Divine Heresy. From A Second Story Window
(Blackmarket/Metal Blade), With Blood Comes Cleansing (Victory) and
Dance Club Massacre (Blackmarket/Metal Blade) round out the bill.
Comments guitarist Lorenzo Antonucci: “We just finished the Firestorm
Fest with Earth Crisis, Terror and Shai Hulud, and though it was an
honor to be part of such an amazing tour, we can’t wait to bang our
heads with Divine Heresy. This tour is going to be a rager, and we are
very happy to be a part of it.”
SWORN ENEMY will then spend May supporting Dying Fetus, further proving
just how diverse their live show is and that they can easily stand tall
and win over any crowd. Origin and Thy Will Be Done will be opening all
of these shows. Either see below or visit

itinerary.
“People sometimes forget that we’ve toured with heavy bands like Slayer,
Cradle of Filth and Six Feet Under,” Antonucci says. “Our best tours
have always been with metal bands, and we’re excited to once again be
the underdog. We appreciate having the opportunity to show people just
how heavy we can be. It’s time to rage!”
SWORN ENEMY have returned with Maniacal, their most crushing offering to
date and a monumental assault that quickly caught the entire genre’s
attention. Featuring a newly reinvigorated lineup and new home at
Century Media, this 10-track offering takes the group’s sound to new
heights, which sees them embracing a thrashier edge and pummeling the
listener with unrivaled aggression. Maniacal is now available
everywhere.
Throw all your preconceived notions out the window, because this is an
all new SWORN ENEMY, determined to carve out their own unique new path
within the metal genre.
