HYPOCRISY has now added a special event VIP ticket for a pre-show meet-and-greet to take place one hour before doors. Each night, fans will get to meet and greet HYPOCRISY for a special event that is being offered this one time only. These special VIP tickets are on sale now at EnterTheVault.com and each venue will put them on sale through whatever ticketing system they use in the coming days.

"A Taste Of Extreme Divinity", the new album from HYPOCRISY, sold 1,400 copies in the United States in its first week of release. The CD landed at position No. 23 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.

HYPOCRISY will take part in a signing session at Scrape Records in Vancouver, British Columbia on May 18 prior to their show at The Rickshaw with SCAR SYMMETRY, HATE, SWASHBUCKLE and BLACKGUARD. The exact time of day will be announced closer to the date, but expect a late afternoon signing.
