WILHELM SCREAM

New Bedford, MA
– In anticipation to the band’s self-titled EP, out
this fall on Paper + Plastick Records, A
WILHELM SCREAM have announced a slew of new tour dates
across the UK, Europe, Canada and the U.S. While overseas the
band will play festival dates, such as the Reading and Leeds festivals,
before hitting North America on a club tour that includes a date
at Gainesville’s eighth installment of The Fest (more info
here: www.thefestfl.com/fest8/).
Confirmed tour dates are listed below, but there will be many
more announced in the coming weeks. Please continue to check the
bands MySpace
page for updates.
"In case you hadn't noticed,
A Wilhelm Scream haven't been on tour for a while (apparently
the longest break in the last 6 years of the band!),” says
Bri Robinson (bass/vocals). “I
can't believe I'm saying this, but I can speak for all of us in
saying that we're aching to sweat, smell, lift gear and wait around
for Mike [Supina - guitar]
to finish brushing his teeth when we're already running late.
A month from now, we'll be hopping on a plane to tour Europe,
working our way from Prague up to the Reading/Leeds festivals,
and also getting our first taste of Ireland (which I'm assuming
will taste like whiskey, or... potatoes... yes). After that, during
the fall we'll be darting across Canada and doing the outer-perimeter
of the States.”
Robinson continues to explain:
“The reason for this long break from touring is because
we took a crack at recording ourselves, putting together an EP
which will be coming out on Paper + Plastick.
This five song EP is an eclectic mix of all the avenues the band
have gone down since Mute Print--and we'll be throwing them into
the sets on these upcoming tours.”
A Wilhelm Scream produced and recorded
the new EP at their Black & Blue studio in New Bedford,
MA, along with their live sound engineer James Whitten.
Matt Bayles (Mastodon, Isis, Minus The Bear,
Shook Ones) is mixing the five song record, which the band
says “is nearly 40 minutes of music and is full of surprises.”
