Ufomammut releasing a new LP, going on first-ever North American tour with Usnea (dates, videos)

February 18, 2015

Italian doomers Ufomammut have been at it for 15 years but never actually toured North America. However, surrounding their upcoming Maryland Deathfest appearance, the band will go on their first-ever tour on these shores. The tour includes a run with Oregon sludge band Usnea which hits NYC on May 19 at Saint Vitus. Tickets for that show are on sale now. All dates are listed below.

The tour will be in support of their upcoming seventh full-length, Ecate, due out on March 31 via Neurosis’ Neurot Recordings. No music has been released from that album yet, but you can watch a few videos from the recording sessions, below.

Usnea‘s newest album is their massive 4-song Relapse debut, Random Cosmic Violence, which dropped last November. Stream that album in full, with the list of tour dates, tour flyer, and Ufomammut videos, below…
