Official press release:
Sorrow Carrier Records confirms the August release of Ache Of Eternity — the crushing new EP by Georgia-based straight edge metallic hardcore outfit Vatican – as the band begins to launch a brutal run of summer tour dates advancing the record.
Vatican’s Ache Of Eternity was recorded by Kris Hilbert at Legitimate Business (Advent, Torch Runner, Red Death, Joy) in May of 2017, after which it was mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege (Integrity, Nails, Xibalba) and completed with artwork by Spencer Guerrero and photography by Nathan Fitzgerald.
Ache Of Eternity will see release through Sorrow Carrier Records on August 25th; stand by for audio samples, pre-order links, an official video from the EP and more to be issued in the days ahead.
Ache Of Eternity track listing:
1. “Divine Ruination”
2. “Boundless Image”
3. “Dreamer’s Bodybag”
4. “Slit Of Creation”
5. “Innocence Grows Obsolete”
Vatican has booked an intense run of US summer tour dates preceding the release of Ache Of Eternity, beginning with a show this Sunday, July 16th with Culture Killer and more in Ladson, South Carolina. Ten days later, on Wednesday, July 26th, they’ll play a This Is Hardcore pre-show supporting All Else Failed before heading out with Absolute Suffering, Strength Approach, and Momentum from July 31st through August 6th, after which Vatican and Momentum will continue on in support of Breaking Wheel from August 8th through August 16th.
