Dreaming Dead Posts Tour Update and Live Video Footage Online

Los Angeles, California-based death/thrash metal band DREAMING DEAD has posted an update of their current "Within One 2008 U.S Tour" online and some live footage.

The band recently signed to IBEX MOON RECORDS and will release their debut album "Within One" on January 20th, 2009. The update reads:

"Hello fans and friends! We're about a third of the way through our U.S. tour and we're having a great time. The van is running well, we have a cooler full of food, and apart from a couple minor colds and hangovers we're feeling pretty good. The weather has been great, but the lack of rain and snow is tinged with sadness because so many lakes and reservoirs that we've driven by in California are really low. Bummer.

"Anyway, we're performing in a variety of venues and we've been playing strong sets every night. We had two really great shows opening up for the Death by Decibels tour with Dying Fetus, Kataklysm, Eluveitie & Keep of Kalessin. Shout out to the bands on that tour and to the crew for being super cool to us and helping us pull off our sets each night. Thanks to Tonus and Pete too for getting us on the Oakland show. The other shows have been great as well. We've played Santa Cruz, Chico, Eugene, Tacoma, and Spokane and we had a great kick off show at the Black Castle in Los Angeles. We've been getting great feedback from folks and we've sold lots of CDs and t-shirts. Extra huge thanks to everybody who helped us out by buying something. Enjoy! Also, thank you so much to all the kind people who have made us food or let us sleep in their homes. We couldn't do this without you.

"We're leaving the Pacific Northwest now and we'll be making our way through the Midwest all the way to Michigan and then back through the Southwest and home. So all you red state folks get ready. We're gonna be bringing you some heavy stuff this week. And if you just can't wait, check out a video of us live in Oakland performing the title track off our forthcoming album "Within One", due out January 20th 2009 on Ibex Moon records."
