THE FACELESS To Debut New Song On 'The Decibel Defiance Tour'

October 13, 2010

Los Angeles-based progressive death metal titans THE FACELESS are preparing to embark on a massive North American fall tour as direct support to SUFFOCATION while completing work on their much-anticipated third full-length release. These genre visionaries truly burned the candle at both ends, working diligently on new material all summer long while co-headlining the annual "Summer Slaughter" tour.

Decibel magazine's "The Decibel Defiance Tour" — featuring SUFFOCATION, THE FACELESS, THROUGH THE EYES OF THE DEAD, DECREPIT BIRTH and FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE — kicks off in Worcester, Massachusetts on October 15 at the annual Rock and Shock festival.

Commented THE FACELESS guitarist Michael Keene: "After the 'Summer Slaughter' tour wrapped up, we were left with a very refreshing sense of energy and change.

"It was great to get out and play such killer shows with all of those talented bands and the experience has super-charged the excitement of writing new material and pushing ourselves to new musical boundaries as a group and individual musicians/performers.

"The writing process for our upcoming third record is in full swing and it's a very exciting, fulfilling musical journey so far.

"We'll be debuting a new song on our upcoming tour with SUFFOCATION, which I feel is a great example of the direction in which the new material is headed. Expect a very progressive and vibey record that maintains the high energy that you would expect of THE FACELESS and even more thought-provoking lyrical content than ever before.

"We'll be hitting the road in just a few days to wrap up the touring cycle for 'Planetary Duality'. We'll be locked up in my recording studio in Los Angeles once we get home.

"This will be the last tour we'll be doing until we complete the recording of our new record. With that said, we want to make this a special tour for fans who may have seen us on the 'Summer Slaughter' tour. Therefore, we'll be playing more old songs than usual and debuting a brand new song for you!"
