DANZIG Planning 'Blackest Of The Black' U.S./Canada Tour

May 17, 2008

DANZIG will embark on the "Blackest of the Black 2008" tour later in the year. This year the trek will cover all of the U.S. and will include select Canadan dates. More information will be made available soon.

The last "Blackest of the Black" tour which took place at the end of 2006 focused on the U.S. West Coast and featured headliner DANZIG alongside LACUNA COIL, THE HAUNTED, BELPHEGOR and ASESINO.

"The 'Blackest of the Black' tour is for extreme bands that sell out venues across the country, that sell records, but don't get radio play or get on MTV," DANZIG mainman Glenn Danzig, who masterminded the tour, previously said. "It's anti the corporate crap nu-rap-metal that gets shoved down fans' throats at other concerts."

Glenn Danzig completed a short U.S. tour in October/November with a band that included bassist Steve Zing (SAMHAIN) and guitarist Todd Youth (DANZIG, MURPHY'S LAW); former MISFITS axe man Doyle Von Frankenstein and his new band GORGEOUS FRANKENSTEIN, supported on all dates.
