The Sword at SXSW (more by Samantha Marble)
The Sword will kick it into hyperdrive in October following the release of Warp Riders, the band’s new LP due via Kemado on August 24th. Webster Hall gets the look on October 16th and you can get your tickets via AMEX presale on 8/4 or regular sale two days later. Full dates are below.
Produced by Matt Bayles (Mastodon, Isis, etc), Warp Riders is the band’s first foray in to concept album territory, “a psychedelic space opera that explores temporal themes of death and rebirth.” Word. But does it kick out the jams? Judge for yourself with “Tres Brujas”, available for free download above.
Full tour dates for The Sword, as well as some videos, are below.
