Obituary are a death metal institution, and due to this status, are one of a particularly short list of bands that could put out music videos featuring a backyard BBQ and I’ll still take them seriously. Thie new video for “Brave” is two minutes of mini-bikes, BBQ and studio footage, set to the blistering Florida death metal that Obituary are known for.
This coming spring, Obituary will be touring Europe for a month, starting in early March 2018. I had a chance to see them with live last year and i can affirm two things about them: 1) they have glorious hair still, somehow (probably satanic pacts or something) and 2) they still perform like demons. Of the upcoming tour, the band said:
“We are super excited to be back on a headlining tour in Europe. We have
had great opportunities as direct support these past few years for Carcass, Cannibal Corpse and Kreator but it’s time to get back to that final slot and the full power of a headlining tour. 45/50mins spots are just not enough for OBITUARY to cover all albums
from the past three decades and our fans expect and deserve to see more…and more is what they will get from us on these dates.
We can’t wait to bring our full production and full-length concert to
Europe. We will be performing many songs from the Self-Titled and Inked in Blood releases along with showcasing all the classics that everyone loves and is eager to hear.
We are working on the set list right now and want to hear from our fans
which songs they want to hear so we encourage you to give us your ideas, thoughts and suggestions.
Hang on to your asses because shit’s about to get real….Real Heavy.!!!”
