Earth is headed out on tour for the upcoming year. First a stop in Mexico City on March 19th with the Melvins, followed by a 5 week European tour beginning April 1st. Upon their return to North America, Earth will be joined by the amazing band Ô PAON on a tour of the Northeastern United States. In addition to these tours, Earth will perform with Portishead at Asbury Park in October at the festival – I’ll be Your Mirror.
NPR recently featured Earth and their new record, Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light 1, as part of their First Listen Series.
“Originally, Earth pioneered the minimalist metallic drones that shook speakers to frayed wires with 1993’s Earth 2, followed by more straightforward but still heavy fare. After a break, the band re-emerged in 2005 with Hex; Or Printing in the Infernal Method, a doomy, noirish Americana record that confounded as much as it retained the heaviness that defined Earth. But this time, the group redefined heaviness on its own terms.” Read More
