Southern metal supergroup HAIL!HORNET will kick-off their first ever U.S. Tour this Friday Jan. 20th in Wilmington, NC. This three-week run in support of their latest album Disperse The Curse will run through Feb. 9th with support from psychedelic sludgesters ZOROASTER. In addition to the whiskey-soaked performances, each night will also include a special screening of RWAKE lead-singer, C.T.’s critically acclaimed documentary on southern metal, ‘Slow Southern Steel’. The trailer for the documentary is available for viewing here.
