Montreal's dynamic and unmatched classical/black metal act UNEXPECT have posted an end of tour update online

The posting reads: "After one month of intense touring, the North
American Tour with Trail of Tears is approaching its end. It is with
sadness that we parted ways with our Norwegian friends with whom we've
had a lot of great moments in the past few weeks! May the holy Jack
Daniels himself shine on you my friends...Big cheers goes to Echoes of
Eternity too who unfortunately had to leave earlier on the tour for
causes of sickness. Thanks to everyone who showed up all across the US,
Mexico and Canada! There's still a few shows left which we'll be
headlining, so hide your dogs and stare at the sun for too long with
devilish glee...we're coming for you...
Yet another tour has been added to our list of activities for 2008!
September shall see us touring with Japanese experimental metal act
SIGH and the band ZIMMERS HOLE, featuring members of Strapping Young
Lad & Fear Factory. Fun fun fun.
We'll also be headlining a "female fronted metal" festival called
Flight of the Valkyrie in St.Paul on June 28! I don'treally know what's
a "female" but it sounds quite interesting. Here's the link to their
website... www.femalemetalfest.com
Seems like nominations are on our side those days around...we've just been nominated at the MIMI 2008 in those categories :
International -- Artist with the greatest international potential
Broadcast -- Artist who will benefit most from a media campaign
National -- Artist who will benefit most from Quebec or Canadian tour support
Discovery -- Best new artist of the year
Studio Ready -- Artist that will benefit most from additional studio support
Unsigned -- Artist that produced the best demo of the year
Best song -- Given to the songwriter of the best song of the year
Finally, anyone interested in booking us for additional shows in Europe
for our tour being organized at the end of 2008 should contact this
