INTO ETERNITY Singer Hopes To Tour 'Nonstop' In 2007

November 3, 2006

Chris Harris and Jon Wiederhorn of MTV.com report:

One recent morning while on Gigantour 2006, Stu Block realized he's got it pretty good. The frontman's band, Canadian melodic death-metallers INTO ETERNITY, were on the road with the second annual installment of Dave Mustaine's traveling circus of brutality, which also features MEGADETH, OPETH, LAMB OF GOD and ARCH ENEMY. Every night, Block went to sleep on his band's tour bus with a stomach full of catered gourmet cuisine.

"It was like, 'Man, it can only go downhill from here,' " Block joked. "The NEVERMORE guys," who were on the first Gigantour in 2005, "told us it was an amazing experience, especially the catering. And it was amazing. How can you complain about going out with MEGADETH and all these other awesome bands, doing arenas with catering? It was a super wicked experience on all levels."

Gigantour, which wrapped October 8 in Orlando, Florida, also helped Into Eternity get the word out about "The Scattering of Ashes", their fourth, recently released LP. While INTO ETERNITY have no additional touring plans at the moment, Block said it's possible they'll hit the road with NEVERMORE and SCAR SYMMETRY in early 2007. Either way, next year will bring nonstop touring for the guys — or at least they hope.
