East Coast hardcore band Converge have given a big update about a future U.S., U.K. / European tour, their new album, a split EP with Drop Dead and an upcoming DVD release.
They spent a good portion of the winter writing and recording demos for a new album, which will be released by Epitaph/Deathwish sometime down the road (that means no date is ready to announce yet). Besides the new album they will be self-releasing a split 7″EP with the legendary Drop Dead. If all goes well, look for the release to be available at the upcoming U.S. shows.
The new Converge DVD is currently being edited. If things go as planned there, they hope to get through this process soon and have it released later this year. Deathwish will be repressing their “Unloved And Weeded Out” collection as a 12″LP soon. The vinyl versions of “Axe To Fall”, “No Heroes”, “You Fail Me”, and “Jane Doe” are available now on Deathwish.
They are still confirming dates and specifics for their tours, but you can check out the latest info here.
