INTER ARMA Streams Exclusive Track - Band Confirms New SXSW-Based Tour Dates


Richmond-based doom purveyors INTER ARMA are preparing for their most dynamic material yet to hit the public, in the form of their Relapse debut, the crushing Sky Burial LP, now just two weeks from worldwide release.

Amidst praise from media outlets internationally over recent weeks -- even dating into 2012 with Decibel Magazine, BrooklynVegan and others placing them in the “most anticipated bands of 2013” circuit -- INTER ARMA backs up these anticipated hopes and claims on Sky Burial. Already known for coalescing elements of doom, psychedelic sludge, grind, black metal and more through massive riffs and nontraditional “metal” elements into a sound of their own, on the new effort the band incorporates further experimentation with noise and programming, along with elements of classic Southern Americana.

Today, the taskmaster over at The Obelisk has hosted an exclusive stream of “Westward” from Sky Burial, joined by in-depth musical and lyrical commentary on the creation of the track... RIGHT HERE.

Previously, the more than ten-minute seismic upheaval of “The Survival Fires” was released via NPR, and the surge of “'sblood” released through the Relapse Youtube channel.


In addition to their previously announced tour with Mutilation Rise leading up to SXSW and far beyond, this week INTER ARMA also confirms a slew of additional tour dates. New shows preceding already announced dates have been confirmed -- including a hometown record release show in Richmond on March, 7th -- as well as new shows throughout the original tour and new blast of Northeastern US shows with the likes of Men’s Room, Earthling and more in mid-late April.
