Words of Farewell Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

WORDS OF FAREWELL play Progressive Death Metal, similar in style with bands like Scar Symmetry, Dark Tranquillity, Insomnium or Mors Principium est. The band formed in the German Ruhr District in early 2007. After four months of rehearsing, the 7 track EP 'Ashes of the Coming Dawn' was recorded and published in a quantity of 500 units. In autumn 2008 the 4 track CD 'From Now On...' was pressed in limited numbers to be sent out to record labels and venues, distributed at live concerts and additionally offered as free download. Furthermore, the second sampler of the 'European Underground Extreme Metal Front" featured the track "In Fiction'. From June to December 2010, the band entered Metallurgy Studios, Mönchengladbach, where the debut album IMMERSION was produced. Taken from this production, the song 'Sorae' was uploaded to various internet platforms where fans and musicians sang from the treetops. Since early 2012 Words of Farewell cooperate with the German record label AFM Records from Hamburg. The first official act was the distribution of Immersion in Europe and the United States of America. Countless reviews from both national and international critiques awarded the album very high marks, in some cases the highest possible. Interviews were conducted with scene magazines such as LEGACY and METAL HAMMER. From July to November 2013, Words of Farewell produced their second studio album THE BLACK WILD YONDER – once again at Metallurgy Studios. On the new album, the band presents more grown-up songwriting. The technical-progressive style is maintained without losing the complexity and playfulness in guitars and keyboards that has been developed on Immersion. The live performances of Words of Farewell are energetic and thrilling. The band's experience in live performances is based on various concerts, including direct support for e.g. SCAR SYMMETRY and DARK TRANQUILLITY. Moreover, Words of Farewell played at festivals like RockHarz Open Air, Dong Open Air or Winternachtstraum Festival, together with Soulfly, Children of Bodom, Soilwork and others. Not least because of these live performances, Words of Farewell were able to sign a powerful endorsement deal with German amplifier manufacturers ENGL AMPS in early 2015.
