"We are all very excited about our new release, 'Omega Wave'," commented vocalist Russ Anderson. "Everyone involved with creating the record worked extremely hard. Now we want to share it with our fans and friends! So anybody who wants to come out and celebrate with us is officially invited! We will also have plenty of Nuclear Blast and FORBIDDEN swag on hand for giveaways. Be a part of our special night and you may just win some free shit too!"
