SCUM OF THE EARTH
SET TO LAUNCH THE “ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE TOUR” AUGUST 31
TO PROMOTE THE RELEASE OF ‘THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT,’
DUE OUT AUGUST 28 WORLDWIDE ON GOOMBA MUSIC
August 2012 -- Be warned. Hell hath no fury like the “Zombie Apocalypse
Tour” led appropriately by SCUM OF THE EARTH (@scumoftheearth), with
Blue Felix and Athel. The onslaught commences August 31 in Kansas City,
MO at Aftershock.
SCUM OF THE EARTH is invading America in support of the August 28 worldwide release of THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT
on the Chicago-based Goomba Music, Inc. label (with distribution
through eOne in North America). Joining singer/guitarist/band
mastermind RIGGS on the trek is bassist Nick Mason (who doubles as a
tattooist at RIGGS’ Monster Tattoo shop in Branson, MO), guitarist Virus
(who also plays guitar in Dope) and drummer Eddie Travis. A trailer
for the tour can be seen here: http://bit.ly/L7Y2oz.
The
first single, “The Devil Made Me Do It III,” was released last month
and was heard during the New Jersey Devils’ Stanley Cup playoff games.
It was recorded at the Mansion Studio in Branson, MO by RIGGS and
Brandon Mashburn (Trust Company, The Dreaming). A video for the song
was recently shot in Ft. Lauderdale, FL at The Native Village, which is
where part of “Jackass 3D” was filmed. Directed by Tim King (SOiL
bassist and Director of A&R at Goomba Music, Inc.), viewers get
exactly what they expect (and more) from SCUM OF THE EARTH, including
live snakes, RIGGS in an alligator pit, zombie voodoo girls, fire
breathers, lots of blood, and wild animals. The clip can now be seen on
the Goomba Music’s YouTube here: http://bit.ly/PuFe2H.
Meanwhile, fans who purchase a CD copy of THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT
will have access to a coupon for a free SCUM OF THE EARTH devil tattoo
at Monster Tattoo. As RIGGS exclaims, “It’s their chance to bankrupt
me!”
