Sacramento-based symphonic metal quintet GRAVESHADOW and Pacific Northwest blackened progressive-metal group VINTERSEA have announced “The Uncertain Hour Tour 2022,” beginning Friday, July 15th at Barmadeggon in Tulare, CA, and running up and down the West Coast, ending Saturday, July 23rd at Cafe Colonial in Sacramento, CA. Full tour dates are below. Pre-orders for CD and limited-edition (200) vinyl copies of GRAVESHADOW‘s upcoming third album, “The Uncertain Hour,” are available at www.smarturl.com/graveshadow. While CD copies of VINTERSEA‘s most recent album, 2019’s “Illuminated,” are available at https://vintersea.bandcamp.com.

“We’re so excited to be here again and we can’t wait to get back out on the road and see everyone — new and existing fans alike!,” exclaims GRAVESHADOW guitarist William Lloyd Walker. “We’ve talked for years about doing a run with VINTERSEA and we’re thrilled we were able to finally make it happen. Can’t wait to see you all out there very soon!”

VINTERSEA – whose unique fusion of majestic progressive metal, harsh blackened death and post-metal beauty draws inspiration from the darkened skies of their Pacific Northwest home – have started recording the follow-up album to their critically-acclaimed 2019 opus, “Illuminated.” The band’s most recent record showed off the band’s riveting mix of prog, black, death and post-metal that has earned comparisons to forward-thinking acts such as Agalloch and Enslaved, and was praised by Dead Rhetoric as “a wondrous, challenging record that will reward listeners who are seeking something more.”

“We have been fans and friends of Graveshadow for year, and have been waiting for the right opportunity to explore the Pacific coast with them,” explains VINTERSEA guitarist Riley Nix. “Now that we are united with recent albums out under the M-Theory banner, it is the perfect time to unleash a barrage of beautiful, brutal, and forward-thinking metal across three states.”
