What do you get when you cross Mastodon with a dub-sack? Besides horrifying night-terrors, you get fellow Atlanta-bred metal trio Zoroaster (zohr-oh-as-ter). The band is fresh out of the studio and will hit the road June 15th in support of its forthcoming LP Matador.

Described as “genre-defying”, this avant-psych-doom-metal band — comprised of guitarist/vocalist Will Fiore, bassist/vocalist Brent Anderson and drummer Dan Scanlan — will go coast to coast with the tour, ending on July 17th in Atlanta, GA at The Earl for the Matador release party. Black Tusk and Dark Castle will open for Zoroaster on all dates. Tickets are on sale now for selected dates.

More information can be found on the band’s website. Matador is out July 13th, via E1 Music
