News : First Fragment announce tour with Vale of Pnath & Virvum

Via Metal Injection : "To say that 2016 was a good year for fans of technical death metal would be a gross understatement. The truth is, it was a pivotal year for the scene, with killer releases from both established bands and many talented newcomers alike. Amidst all of that, several releases in the scene rose to the top. Which, for many fans, certainly included the trio of excellent 2016 albums from Virvum, Vale Of Pnath, and First Fragment. It seems this fact wasn't lost on any of those bands, as they've now announced a forthcoming fall U.S. tour together that combines all their shredtastic talents into a tour package the likes of which rarely come around.

Talented visual artist Samuel Nelson (Stigma Art) further unites all three of the bands, as he was responsible for the album art for all three of the bands 2016 releases. Which is put to excellent use in the tour poster, smoothly combining parts of all three of their album arts into one magnificent entity. If this tour comes anywhere near you, don't miss it.
