Combichrist and Julien-K to tour

Like the demons in a good horror flick, COMBICHRIST have returned... and this time, they're bringing friends. Metropolis Records labelmates JULIEN-K will be joining them on the second leg of their DEMONS ON TOUR this summer through cities that they missed earlier this year. Kicking off on June 12th, appropriately enough, in the spiritual hotbed of New Orleans, both bands will be touring in support of their recently released albums: Combichrist's Today We Are All Demons and Julien-K's Death to Analog. Aesthetic Perfection and Dismantled will also support.

Combichrist's much lauded and respected live shows are, as Crypt Magazine describes, "known for tons of energy, blood, and a rock n' roll attitude." BlogCritics also warns it's "not for the faint of heart - you wouldn't bring your grandmother to this show." The live incarnation is comprised of Combichrist mastermind Andy LaPlegua, longtime live drummer Joe Letz (Amen, Genitorturers, Emigrate), keyboardist Z_Marr (Hell Trash), and Trevor Friedrich (Eighteen Visions, Imperative Reaction).

Julien-K brings the Death
Julien-K has toured significantly in the last two years and created quite a thunderous stir on tours with Evanescence, Mindless Self Indulgence, as well as a mainstage slot on Projekt Revolution alongside Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance, Placebo, Taking Back Sunday and HIM, the band had been planning and plotting their international rock overthrow for quite a few years now. Their show a few weeks ago at Los Angeles' Roxy was a packed affair, of which Mishmash Magazine lauded, "Twenty minutes into their set, if you hadn't been converted by the energy of the songs that came before, then you surely would have been seduced by the slow, methodical love-making vibe..."

Combichrist's Today We Are All Demons was released on January 20th and Beyond Race Magazine was not shy in proclaiming it as "louder, faster and delivering more of an industrial ear assault than anything Combichrist has previous spawned... Today We Are All Demons - dare I say - is their finest work to date." Julien-K's Death to Analog was released on March 10th and Revolver opined, "Imagine Depeche Mode's Dave Gahan with attitude instead of angst, and you'll have a sense of just how cool Ryan Shuck sounds."
