Shortly before their “Decade of the Swarm Tour”, Pittsburgh-based Deathcore band Signs of the Swarm have revealed a live version of their well-known song, “Amongst the Low & Empty,” from their participation in Whitechapel’s 2023 Christmas show. The audio from the board was mixed+mastered by producer Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, Varials). It’s accompanied by a video of the same song performance at the show.
Drummer Bobby Crow says:
We wanted to capture the energy of ‘Amongst the Low & Empty’ from the stage and bring it to your headphones. The song has really taken on a life of its own on the road—serving as our new de facto opener and jolting the crowd with its immediate energy—all thanks to the fans. Special thanks to Whitechapel and the amazing crowd in Knoxville, TN for being part of this. And, yes, we’ll be opening with it on both the ‘Decade of the Swarm’ North American Tour and ‘Faces of Death’ European Tour.
The North American run features Cane Hill, Ov Sulfur (fronted by Ricky Hoover, formerly of Suffokate), 156/Silence, and A Wake In Providence, who add a more gothic take on the genre.
The European trek finds Signs of the Swarm’ with Veil Of Maya, with the co-headlining duo joined by fellow PA band Varials and To The Grave.
