Contemporary Swedish black metal horde Watain has announced its plans to conquer audiences across North America in early 2018 as they embark on a headlining tour next winter featuring direct support from Deströyer 666.
Watain shared the following statement along with the news, saying:
“We are very pleased to announce our eager return to the North American continent with Trident Wolf Eclipse. The two Black Metal Warfare tours of 2015 clearly showed us the ever growing hunger and force of our American crowd, so with a new album out and the addition of none less than the mighty Deströyer 666 to the bill, this should turn into something legendary! A proud hail to all our North American supporters, see you in February, joined in morbid ecstasy and raw fucking power!“
