Denver sludge greats Primitive Man have announced another tour supporting last year’s Caustic (Relapse), and they’re bringing another killer Colorado band along for the ride, atmospheric death/doomers Spectral Voice. Spectral Voice are coming off of a great 2017, which saw the release of their debut album Eroded Corridors of Unbeing on Dark Descent Records (home of other recently hyped bands like Horrendous, Blood Incantation, and Crypt Sermon), which landed at #6 on Decibel’s Top Albums of 2017 and cracked Pitchfork’s 10 Best Metal Albums of 2017 too.

The tour includes a Montclair, NJ show on March 30 at Meatlocker and a Brooklyn show on March 31 at Saint Vitus. Tickets for the Brooklyn show are on sale now.

Spectral Voice play Decibel Metal & Beer Fest in Philly the next day, and Primitive Man also play their own Philly show that day. All dates are listed below.

After that tour ends, Primitive Man have a few festival appearances, including Seattle’s Northwest Terror Fest (which also includes Integrity, Panopticon, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Thou, Ufomammut, Emma Ruth Rundle, The Atlas Moth, Full of Hell, Gatecreeper, Necrot, SubRosa, False, Phillorian, Dreadnought, Falls of Rauros, and more) and Austin Terror Fest (which also includes Yob, 40 Watt Sun, Bell Witch, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Come to Grief, Buzzov-en, Acid King, Krallice, and more).
