OBITUARY: Limited Box Version Of 'Xecutioner's Return' Sold Out

August 20, 2007

Anticipation continues to build for the August 28 release date of "Xecutioner's Return", the new album from death metal legends OBITUARY. The limited box version of the record has already sold out its worldwide pressing of 10,000 units with pre-orders for the album continuing to come in daily. Britain's Kerrang! magazine recently said "Xecutioner's Return" finds "form not witnessed since the early '90s... the distorted sludge and swampy groove that made OBITUARY one of the most distinctive of death metal's first wave are well and intact." Gracing the cover of Metal Maniacs' October issue (hitting newstands tomorrow August 21),the band have been overwhelmed by media accollades and international support.

"Evil Ways", the lead single from the album is currently available as an advance single exclusively from iTunes. Sirius Satellite Radio has been spinning the track as a companion promotion for the single's availability. iTunes subscribers can purchase the track by visiting the official iTunes store.

OBITUARY kicks off their U.S. tour September 8 in Miami with the tour ending in New Orleans in early October. The band will be supported by ALABAMA THUNDERPUSSY, FULL BLOWN CHAOS and labelmates HEMLOCK.
