Montreal's DESPISED ICON has posted video footage which was filmed during the band's recent Montreal Assault tour with ION DISSONANCE, BENEATH THE MASSACRE and THE PLASMARIFLE. Watch the clip below.

In other news, DESPISED ICON vocalist Alex Erian has issued the following update: "So Summer Slaughter ended up being wild as fuck! Thanks for rocking out with us and making it our best U.S. tour ever. We won't be coming back there this year so we're gonna miss you guys. We've been home for over a week now, chilling out and getting ready to hit Europe for the second time this year. It'll be our first time playing festivals over there and we can't wait to experience the chaos! To all our friends back home, we'll be playing our last three Quebec shows of the year as soon as we're back from Europe at the end of the month. Hope to see you then!"

DESPISED ICON recently announced the departure of bassist Sebastien Piché. He has since been replaced by Glassman's longtime friend Max Lavelle from GORATORY.

DESPISED ICON released a "deluxe edition" of its "The Ills of Modern Man" album on June 24 featuring a bonus DVD composed of a live set from a monumental hometown performance, interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. The live footage includes the following songs: "A Fractured Hand", "Bulletproof Scales", "Harvesting The Deceased", "Immaculate", "Retina", "The Sunset Will Never Charm Us" and "In The Arms Of Perdition".
