Iniquity 2013 UK tour with Katalepsy and Unfathomable Ruination

Iniquity Katalepsy Unfathomable ruination 2013 uk tour

Terrorizer magazine have announced "Bloodletting the UK tour" featuring Copenhagen's Iniquity, Moscow's Katalepsy and our very own Unfathomable Ruination. Christ this has to be the most brutal tour of 2013!! Iniquity put out their debut, the death metal classic "Serenadium" in 1996 to amazing feedback from the underground press.  They then managed to follow up with an EP and 2 more full lengths of almost equal quality to their landmark debut (seriously what was in the water that 90's death metal bands drank to make them so consistent?).  2013 marks the 15th anniversary of the 1998 The Hidden Lore EP and so the line up from that recording have reformed for a few very special tour dates.  This is in Iniquity's woads a one off:

For others, it may be the dulcet melody of early-morning birdsong or just the shrill, anaemic tones of their favourite lullaby (I won‘t judge).

But for a select, sadistic few, there isn’t much on this earth that’s able to tug so malevolently on the (rotten) heart-strings than the doomed death metal din of San Francisco’s Autopsy. A hideously gut-wrenching tone many feared lost to the dust, before its unholy resurrection circa 2009.

While the resultant releases...
