Die Choking Kicking Off European Tour Dates

Hypergrind trio Die Choking will begin the band's first tour of Europe this week, kicking off Grind Is The New Black tomorrow in France. The tour also marks the CD version of the band's debut album "III," being co-released between The Compound Recs and Selfmadegod Records.

Surrounding its initial deluxe vinyl release through The Compound Recs in October, "III" will now be issued on CD, the disc being made available for the European tour. The CD will then be available in Europe via Selfmadegod Records and in the U.S. via The Compound Recs/Earsplit Distro on February 26th.

The Grind Is The New Black tour sees the band joining up with Paris-based Department Of Correction, with two weeks of shows beginning this Friday, February 12th, and running through the 27th.

Following the European tour, Die Choking is also confirmed to take part in the Berserker III Fest in Detroit, playing March 4th. See the band live on these dates:
