The Sword Announce North American Tour with Royal Thunder and Purson
Man, The Sword must just love playing live! Quickly after last year’s fifty-date fall tour, the Texan stoner metallers have now announced a forty one-date tour! And the first leg is with Royal Thunder again! Christ, man, don’t these dudes know how to take a break?
Regardless, do yourselves a favor and catch The Sword live. It’ll be like watching a louder, edgier, more country-fried version of Black Sabbath, and will cost a fraction of the money it would take to actually see Black Sabbath. Besides that, Royal Thunder rule, and the second leg of the tour will be with Purson, who are gnarly as all Hell. This is a great way to spend a random night–tipsy, high, and rocking out to some riffy jams.
