Just a heads up, there will be no Demersal pre-orders for Tomb Tree/ZBR, just like Crossed, we’ll wait until the release and we have them in hand. Demersal is set for May 10th, 2024.

The next Tomb Tree release is the stellar new screamo band .22LR who contains members of Low Before The Breeze, Less Dead, and Jornada Del Meurto (to name just a few) with a new song premiering over at Idioteq.com. Full release is April 2nd!!! Click on the pic above or this text to go there.
