PROSTHETIC RECORDS’ most recent signing, thrash-infused grinders RAMMING SPEED, have just announced that they will join heavy rockers Valient Thorr and Metal Blade’s Gypsyhawk on a summer U.S. tour. The band will also be appearing throughout the spring alongside Goatwhore, 3 Inches of Blood and Revocation throughout the northeast and midwest. A complete list of the band’s upcoming tour dates can be found below.
RAMMING SPEED’s sound combines the charging rhythms of d-beat punk and the aggression of thrash with NWOBHM-worthy guitar hamonies and grind’s blinding speed. The band were labeled “one of the hardest-working bands in heavy metal” by Noisecreep due to their aggressive touring schedule, which has included runs with Trap Them, Holy Grail, Torche, Municipal Waste, Toxic Holocaust, Phobia, Black Tusk and Saviours.
Having previously released a variety of records, tapes, and EPs throughout various labels, RAMMING SPEED will release their full-length PROSTHETIC debut, “Doomed To Destroy, Destined To Die,” this summer. The album was recorded at GodCity Studios with Kurt Ballou (Converge, Kvelertak, Black Breath) while being mastered by Brad Boatwright (Sleep, High on Fire, SUNN O))), Tragedy) at AudioSiege. Stay tuned to the band’s website for more information in the coming weeks: https://www.facebook.
