CROSSS, who are on tour now in the U.S., are pleased to announce extended 2015 tour dates which will wrap up with a month of shows opening for Built To Spill in September – see full list of dates below.
CROSSS is a Canadian trio who take inspiration from ’70s proto-drone, lo-fi indie, noise and metal. Their dirge, punishing volume, and composition intensity is offset by haunting and memorable vocal melodies. Prodigious drumming and ambitious improvised guitar create moments of complex prolonged trance and meditative phrase.
The group began in Halifax, Canada in 2012 as a duo, but following several relocations and lineup shifts, is now based in Toronto Canada and has grown into a trio.
CROSSS’ debut 12-inch Obsidian Spectre was released on Telephone Explosion in 2013. Their follow-up LP titled LO was released on June 16, 2015.
