News: THE CONVALESCENCE: This Is Hell Full-Length Out Now And Streaming; Band To Kick Off Tour With Venom Inc., Goatwhore, And Toxic Holocaust Tonight + Fall Headlining Dates Announced

Today marks the official release of the THE CONVALESCENCE's This Is Hell full-length via Unique Leader Records. The ten-track offering was produced by John Burke (Forever In Terror, Captain Kid, etc.) at Vibe Studios, mixed and mastered by Christian Donaldson (Cryptopsy, Despised Icon, Beyond Creation, etc.) at The Grid, and comes wrapped in the macabre cover art of Coki Greenway.

 

Notes Moshpit Nation of the record, "Haunting, dark, and brutal are all words that describe this full-length album by this hard-touring band. Mixing death metal with elements of black and symphonic metal, THE CONVALESCENCE sows dread, anger, and healing deep into your psyche, but in the end lead those along for the ride to redemption."

 

This Is Hell is currently streaming in full at the Unique Leader Bandcamp page RIGHT HERE where digital orders can be placed. For physical orders, visit THIS LOCATION.

 

In conjunction with the release of This Is Hell, the band will join The Blood Stained Earth North American tour featuring UK-based metal icons Venom Inc., New Orleans' blackened death thrash legion Goatwhore, and Portland punk thrashers Toxic Holocaust. The trek will commence today in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and run through October 2nd in Baltimore, Maryland. From there, THE CONVALESCENCE will close the year with a headlining tour through October and mid-November. Support will be provided by Wings Denied, Shaping The Legacy, Dead Eyes Always Dreaming, and Death Rattle. See all confirmed dates below.

 

"We are beyond exciting to bring our twisted vision of reality to the United States on the This Is Hell headlining tour," says keyboardist/vocalist Katie McCrimmon. "We can't wait to see everyone, hit the road with our friend and tear it up nightly!
