Assembling a co-headlining tour that spans generations of extreme metal lineage and legacy, the 'Feel the Evil Like A Knife' summer tour will feature Canadian metal lifers Exciter teaming with underground blackened outliers Midnight for a walloping one-two of musical destruction.
For Exciter, the trek underscores the band's persistent durability and endurance, now well into the band's more than four decade tenure as thrash champions. The union with charred speed underground heroes Midnight, offers fans both old and new a brilliant pairing that couples the classic with the contemporary in real time.
"We can't wait to hit the road with our brothers in Midnight" enthused Exciter drummer and vocalist, Dan Beehler. "It's going to be a sonic assault like no other with Wraith and Hellwitch joining the party. Get ready to feel the knife...see you maniacs up front!"
Midnight architect and one man wrecking crew, Athenar, also chimed in on the epic pairing of two of extreme music's most ardent underground purveyors. "It is this headbanger's dream come true to be part of the Feel The Evil Like A Knife tour with my heavy metal heroes Exciter! Along with the rippers Wraith and the hellions Hellwitch this is an evening not to be missed. You can't stop pounding steel!"
Specifically for Midnight, the tour will showcase selections from the latest full length offering via Metal Blade Records in Hellish Expectations - which debuted earlier this month.
