CELTIC FROST Frontman Receives 'Unexpected Gift'

July 9, 2007

CELTIC FROST guitarist/vocalist Tom G. Fischer has posted the following message on his blog:

"In the course of the Giger Gang's gathering here in Switzerland on the occasion of the opening of the new H.R. Giger exhibition in Chur in early July, I was given a truly unexpected gift. Unbeknownst to me, the remarkable Eli Livingston, sculptor of Giger's and CELTIC FROST's jewelry amongst other things, had crafted a unique variation of my death mask after I left the United States in May. I am astonished and infinitely grateful."

CELTIC FROST will conclude its epic journey in support of the band's "Monotheist" album with two co-headline concerts in Mexico.

The "Monotheist" tour began in Switzerland on May 29, 2006, and CELTIC FROST will play the final two concerts of the tour at Circo Volador in Mexico City on August 10, 2007, and Cafe Iguana in Monterrey on August 11, 2007. The co-headliner for both shows will be AMON AMARTH. These concerts will be CELTIC FROST's first ever in Mexico, signifying the fulfillment of a long-held ambition.

A 10-part video interview with CELTIC FROST guitarist/vocalist Tom G. Fischer and bassist Martin Ain has been posted on YouTube.

CELTIC FROST's video for "A Dying God Coming into Human Flesh", a song taken from their first album in 13 years, "Monotheist", can be viewed at this location. The fascinatingly gloomy clip was filmed in mid-August 2006 by up-and-coming Swiss director Jessie Fischer (no relation to singer/guitarist Tom Gabriel Fischer) in Zürich, Switzerland.
