Skeletonwitch are kicking off some North American tour dates this week in support of their latest album, Forever Abomination. After a warm-up show in Cleveland on Friday, the band will join forces with The Black Dahlia Murder, Nile and labelmates Hour Of Penance for a four-week tour that concludes at the New England Metal And Hardcore Festival. This marks the group's first North American touring action of 2012.
In other Skeletonwitch news, the final color variant of the forthcoming Breathing The Fire vinyl reissue -- which, unlike the sold-out initial pressings of the album, comes in a gatefold Stoughton "tip-on" jacket -- has arrived at Prosthetic's warehouse.

180-gram black and standard-weight "fire splatter" wax are also available. The former will arrive in select retail stores on April 10; the latter and the half-and-half LP can both be pre-ordered at the Prosthetic Store. LP reissues of the band's 2007 breakthrough, Beyond The Permafrost -- which will also be available in three color variants ("Permafrost splatter," half-and-half and 180-gram black vinyl) -- are still in production, but can also be pre-ordered now at the Prosthetic Store.
