Cruel Hand to tour in support of new album

In celebration of pre-order launch at B9store.com for the upcoming full-length album Lock & Key, Cruel Hand has unveiled a short documentary they made while they recorded the album this past Spring! Check out the video here:

and if you haven't heard the eponymous new song posted on MySpace yet, head to www.MySpace.com/CruelHand now. Additionally, Cruel Hand is equally excited to announce a US tour later this summer with Bane, Trapped Under Ice and Alpha & Omega! Check out tour dates below.

Cruel Hand's new material is full of just as many catchy, metallic riffs as mosh parts and is a heavy mix of influences like Madball, Leeway, Cro-Mags, Metallica, and so on. Their soon-to-be-released third full-length album Lock & Key is one of the most well-rounded hardcore albums in recent memory and is more than just a progression of Cruel Hand's past material, but a defining release for the band. Since the release of Cruel Hand's B9 debut Prying Eyes in 2008, the band has been a touring machine and one of the tightest live bands in the hardcore world.
