Montreal, Canadian
death metal pioneers, DESPISED ICON, have announced several upcoming reunion
shows this Spring, this coming from their 2010 announcement that the group
would be disbanding. While no album or full tour is planned, the members of the
group are just happy to be back on stage performing together.
Vocalist, Alex Erian comments:”It’s been over 3 years already since we
played our last shows and long story short, we genuinely miss it. After a
few talks and a couple of beers, we decided to get back together temporarily to
play a handful of shows. We’re excited to announce that we’ll be
returning to Europe in April on the Impericon Festivals in Vienna, Manchester
and Cologne. To our friends in Canada and the US, we’ll have some good
news for you as well in a few weeks. Thanks for sticking around with us
after all these years. Can’t wait to see you all and crush the stage, one
more time. Keep it brutal.”
A video message was also filmed for the fans and can be seen here: http://youtu.be/AxJGb1TjbM0
Confirmed dates thus far:
25/04/14 Vienna, AT Impericon Festival
27/04/14 Manchester, UK Impericon Festival
30/04/14 Koln, DE Impericon Festival
Having created quite a buzz with their debut album, 2002’s Consumed By
Your Poison, Despised Icon’s brand of technical death infused
hardcore matured and developed over the years, arguably reaching its peak with
2007’s classic, The Ills of Modern Man. The band has
sold over 150,000 albums worldwide and have influenced countless number of
bands in the metal and hardcore scene today.
DESPISED ICON disbanded in 2010 after a series of sold out farewell shows
across their home country.
