 The Browning have announced their Summer 2022 headline tour. "The End of Existence Tour Part One" kicks off July 7 in Houston and runs through July 17 in Des Moines. All dates are below. Special guest Young Medicine will appear. Get tickets here. The band's latest album End of Existence is out now. LISTEN TO THE BROWNING:  THE BROWNING ON TOUR WITH YOUNG MEDICINE:
End of Existence was written, performed, recorded, engineered and mixed by The Browning's impresario Jonny McBee. It's 12 tracks of detuned guitars, electronic nuances, and vocal gut punches. McBee has labelled the music "doomy, dystopian, and apocalyptic." He pulls back the curtain a bit about his inspiration sources, saying, "Early on, I knew I was going to write the heaviest Browning body of work there was. I needed a theme to fit the heaviness and darkness of the music though. Since I was really happy in my personal life, it had to have a fictional plot. For me, this was about creating a universe." The global COVID-19 pandemic tabled the band's touring plans so McBee focused on his next creative and personal chapters. He built a tiny house for his wife and new-born daughter and cooked up End of Existence at home. Over the course of the ensuing year, he took advantage of the extra time to perfect it, playing every instrument, and producing. He effectively bottled the band's signature live intensity in the studio and on End of Existence. https://www.facebook.com/TheBrowningOfficial

Upon the initial planning of this tour our goal was to return to Europe in 2017 pairing a new record with the tour. Unfortunately some unexpected delays have hindered our chances of releasing the record in this time frame. We appreciate that our fans understand how important this release is to us, it is a record we have put so much effort into on every angle, and we feel we would be selling our fans and ourselves short if we compromised the overall release of it. We promise to be back at a later time in 2017, and with a brand new record. Refunds will be available at point of purchase for all cancelled shows”.

The band is currently touring in support of their recently-issued sixth full-length, Mark Of The Blade. Hailed as an, "exciting milestone," by Alternative Press, Mark Of The Blade was produced by Mark Lewis (The Black Dahlia Murder, Cannibal Corpse) and sees Whitechapel redefine who they are and what they are capable of with the resulting eleven tracks. Kicking off with "The Void" - which has a Slayer-esque ferocity that is perfectly suited to the band's three-guitar attack - the songs that follow all leave a distinct impression, and by the time the rich, dark melodies on "Decennium" bring the record to a close, it's impossible to deny the emotional weight brought to bear. Guitarist Alex Wade explains, "At this point in our career and as we grow older, we are taking a more open-minded approach to creating our music, allowing what we think sounds good to evolve naturally, rather than to just write what is expected of us." To purchase Mark Of The Blade in various formats, visit: metalblade.com/whitechapel, where the video for the latest single, "Elitist Ones," can also be viewed. http://www.whitechapelband.com http://www.metalblade.com/whitechapel http://www.facebook.com/whitechapelmetal http://www.twitter.com/whitechapelband http://www.youtube.com/WhitechapelTV  Southern California's metal titans, Suicide Silence have just announced a UK-wide November Tour.
