Xerxes

Xerxes combine hardcore influences that range from Orchid to more chaotic fare like Converge or Ampere, and the band will hit the road with blasting Pittsburgh crew Code Orange Kids for a string of dates in the new year. The shows, which kick off on January 2nd, will include a stop in Brooklyn at Acheron on January 6th. Further details including support are stilll TBA. All dates are listed below.

Both bands are out supporting releases. Code Orange Kids are welcoming their Cycles 7″ (streaming below) and Xerxes are preparing for the release of Our Home Is A Deathbed, due via No Sleep Records in March 2012. The recording, laid down by Kevin Ratterman (Coliseum / My Morning Jacket), is up for preorder and features “Tide/This Place is a Prison” which makes its first appearance here. Stream it below.
