Tokyo, Japan-based metallic hardcore outfit Kruelty have begun their North American Incisions Tour 2023 with Sanguisugabogg, Vomit Forth, and Gates To Hell, with Deterioration and Deadbody on select dates. The American Incisions Tour 2023 will run until August 13, all in support of their savage new LP, Untopia, released earlier this year on Profound Lore Records.
With their second LP, Untopia, Kruelty offer an album even more massive in scope and ultimately heavier than their prior output. The seven-song record was produced by Taylor Young at The Pit Studios (Nails, Xibalba, Section H8), mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege (Obituary, Terminal Nation, Mindforce), and features artwork by Norwegian artist Sindre Foss Skancke.
Kruelty have been touring the planet mercilessly all year in support of the new LP, having completed tours of New Zealand, Australia, Japan, Europe, and Southeast Asia.
Now, Krulety will be touring North America for the next month. The tour also hits the massive Sound And Fury Festival in Los Angeles, the stacked bill containing three dozen bands including Trapped Under Ice, Twitching Tongues, Dead Heat, Big Boy, Fugitive, God’s Hate, Gel, and many more. Following the tour, Kruelty have also booked shows in Philadelphia with Outer Heaven on August 14 and Baltimore with Firestarter August 15. Full list of dates below.
