GIGAN: Psychedelic Tech Metal Eccentrics Announce Fall Tour Dates

Extreme psychedelic tech metal eccentrics, GIGAN, are pleased to announce the Ritualistic Projection Tour 2013 headlining trek. Set to commence October 18 in Appleton, Wisconsin, the brief but pulverizing run will trample through seven cities and include an in-store matinee performance at Reckless Records in Chicago with additional performances to be announced in the coming weeks. 

GIGAN will be touring in support of their forthcoming Multi-Dimensional Fractal Sorcery And Super-Science full-length. A kaleidoscopic sound voyage that is at once musically complex and meticulously concise, Multi-Dimensional Fractal Sorcery And Super-Science dishes up eight hymns of cranium-bending, hallucinatory brutality. The multi-textured offering was recorded with renowned sound-weaver Sanford Parker (Minsk, Buried At Sea, Yakuza) at Earth Analog Studios in Chicago and is set to drop this Fall via Willowtip Records.

GIGAN Ritualistic Projection Tour 2013:
10/18/2013 The Maritime - Appleton, WI
10/19/2013 Reckless Records (In-Store Matinee) - Chicago, IL
10/19/2013 Frank's Power Plant - Milwaukee, WI
10/20/2013 The Cobra Lounge - Chicago, IL
10/23/2013 St, Vitus - Brooklyn, NY
10/24/2013 Roggie's - Boston, MA
10/25/2013 The Boneyard - Atlantic City, NJ
10/26/2013 Trickshots - Albany, NY

The brainchild of left-handed lead guitarist and founding member Eric Hersemann, GIGAN has been challenging the mortal laws of extreme music and creativity since early 2006. Forged around the simple notion that the imagination should be art's only limit, GIGAN's style of creative delivery has simultaneously invoked reactions of amazement, disbelief, shock, awe and ultimately, respect.

GIGAN: Psychedelic Extreme Metallers To Enter Studio Next Month

Psychedelic extreme metal vanguard GIGAN will begin recording their newest studio offering next month. Titled Multi-Dimensional Fractal Sorcery And Super-Science, the band's third full-length, and second to be released through legendary, forward-thinking label imprint, Willowtip Records, will once again be recorded with long-time friend and acclaimed engineer Sanford Parker and will be unleashed sometime this Fall.

Elaborates GIGAN mastermind, Eric Hersemann, "This third GIGAN record is proving to be the most concise and deadly so far. I'm very pleased with the overall dynamics and vibe the current music is creating within our minds. This is the first GIGAN record I have written outside of Florida and my new environment here in Chicago has provided unique inspiration that resulted in some complex and bizarre results. Psychedelic brutality at its finest." 

In related news, GIGAN’s first show of 2013 will come in the form of the Scion Rock Fest 2013 set to take place in Memphis, Tennessee June 1st. The band will be performing alongside an illustrious lineup that includes Testament, Melvins, Arsis, Municipal Waste, Corrosion Of Conformity, Whitechapel, Six Feet Under, Vektor and more!
