KINGDOM OF SORROW Schedules Massachusetts Concert

January 15, 2008

KINGDOM OF SORROW, the new project featuring HATEBREED frontman Jamey Jasta and DOWN/CROWBAR's Kirk Windstein, will perform at The Palladium in Worcester, Massachusetts on February 27. Also appearing on the bill is THY WILL BE DONE.

KINGDOM OF SORROW will release its debut album on February 19 via Relapse Records (February 25 internationally).

Jasta (HATEBREED, ICEPICK) and Windstein (DOWN, CROWBAR) came together some three years ago to create KINGDOM OF SORROW, and in that time put together an album's worth of crushing American metal.

The KINGDOM OF SORROW album was recorded at Planet Z Studios in Massachusetts with producer Zeuss (HATEBREED, SHADOWS FALL). Preview tracks can be heard now via the band's official MySpace page.

The track listing is as follows:

01. Hear This Prayer
02. Grieve
03. Piece It All Back
04. Led Into Demise
05. Demon Eyes
06. With Unspoken Words
07. Free The Fall
08. World
09. Ghosts
10. Begging
11. Buried In Black

Commented Jasta: "I can't even begin to explain how excited I am about KINGDOM OF SORROW! There's been two and a half years of questions, rumors and speculation surrounding this and now we can finally move forward! We've signed a worldwide deal with Relapse Records!!! It's an honor. Kirk and I could not be happier, I've always been a big fan of the label."

Jasta continued: "I can't wait for the world to hear this record. It crushes!! I pushed myself to become a better vocalist and wrote and expressed myself lyrically in a totally different way than I have before. Kirk has never sounded better! His tone is like a 747 filled with tar crashing into a lead mountain. We should press this CD on plutonium because it really is that HEAVY. It was so much fun working on this record. There was no other motive than to have fun and make a unique and different record for the both of us while keeping it heavy, mean and rockin! I think everyone is going to be really surprised!"

Windstein added: "We’re just so happy to have this come out…finally! We had a great time putting it together and we’re just so proud of it. Its super heavy, man, it just crushes! Everyone I play it for, their jaws drop. And after three years, it feels good to know now everyone can hear it."

Jamey Jasta (HATEBREED, ICEPICK) - Vocals
