Liturgy reissuing Renihilation and touring as a quartet again!!!

Liturgy reissuing Renihilation and touring as a quartet again!!!

Okay, let’s be real. Watching Liturgy frontman Hunter Hunt-Hendrix shriek over a drum machine while Bernard Gann noodled away on the guitar was never the same as watching the original four-piece lineup shred. Since drummer Greg Fox left the band in 2011, keeping busy with new project Guardian Alien and his solo work, it seemed hard to believe that the group would ever reunite.

But dreams really do come true: the metal band will be reuniting later this year as a quartet!!! The gang’s all here, guys: Hunter Hunt-Hendrix, Greg Fox, Bernard Gann, and Tyler Dusenbury (who departed the band shortly after Fox) will be taking their transcendental black metal show on the road starting late August.

Are you squealing with joy yet? No? How about this: Liturgy will also be re-releasing its out-of-print LP Renihilation through Thrill Jockey. AND there’s going to be a totally new Liturgy album in 2015! No word yet on whether the new LP will feature the entire quartet or not, but maybe if you clap your hands three times and say “I do believe in fairies,” we’ll get lucky.
