Emmure has inked a worldwide deal with Nuclear Blast/SharpTone. The band’s seventh studio album will be released early 2017. Emmure‘s new single, ‘Torch’, can now be streamed below.
The Torch The Earth Europe Tour, featuring bands like Emmure, After The Burial, Fit For A King, Oceans Ate Alaska, and the UK-upstarts in Loathe! As you might imagine, this tour is going to groove like hell, so you better train your necks to endure the excessive headbanging to these bands. This tour will be one of the first big tours in 2017 and starts in Karlsruhe, Germany and ends in Leipzig, Germany. There are also several shows in the UK, Spain, France and many other European countries in between, so make sure to get your tickets early and not miss this tour! Dates and locations are listed below.
The new lineup of Emmure made its live debut on April 22 in Oberhausen, Germany. Joining vocalist Frankie Palmeri in the band’s latest incarnation are guitarist Josh Travis (Glass Cloud, ex-The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza), bassist Phil Lockett (ex-The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza) and drummer Josh Miller (ex-Glass Cloud).
Emmure pulled out of a series of U.S. shows in October last year “to focus on other things,” which was then followed by bassist Mark Davis, lead guitarist Jesse Ketive, rhythm guitarist Mike Mulholland and drummer Adam Pierce leaving the band. Davis later told AltPress.com about his departure from the group: “There is no time or room for negativity in life. If someone is bringing you down or holding you back from your full potential, it’s time to cut them out, no matter how much you may love them.”
Palmeri released a statement earlier in the year in which he said he regretted saying “a lot of stupid shit” in the past. He said: “Over the years, specifically the last decade, I have done a pretty good job at painting myself as an egotistical, psychotic, moronic douche. I did and said a lot of stupid shit, a good portion of which I look back [on] with embarrassment and regret. I have grown so much as person and I like to think there is still chance for people to understand that everyone grows differently and at their own pace. I am still growing, but I am not the person people have made me out to be. I look forward to reconnecting with all the fans who have stuck with EmmureE through the years and just over all excited about the future.”
Emmure‘s last full-length album, “Eternal Enemies”, was released in April 2014 via Victory Records.
