Texan heavy-weights The Sword return to the UK in March 2008 following their successful tour with Clutch in April of 2007.
Returning in support of their forthcoming and highly-anticipated album 'God's Of The Earth', due for release 17th March on Kemado Records, The Sword are set to lay waste to the UK and show the world exactly who will have the biggest riffs in 2008!
Support comes from Oakland powerhouse Saviours who previously toured the UK as support to Mastodon and start 2008 with the release of their second album (and first for Kemado Records) titled 'Into Abaddon'.
A stunning combination of '70s doom, hardcore punk, 90's black metal and vicious power metal, 'Into Abaddon' pushes the concept of heavy music to its ultimate conclusion. This will be the heaviest tour of 2008, make no mistake.
