From amidst their ongoing North American tour, TODAY IS THE DAY hit Richmond, Virginia early for a pre-show filming of an episode of the ongoing “Brutally Delicious” video series for PureGrainAudio.
Leading off with an extensive interview with iconic TODAY IS THE DAY cult leader, Steve Austin – which includes tales of being bitten by cannibalistic fans, procuring overnight medical treatment on foreign soil, on-stage electrocution and bowel movements, and oh, so much more – the attention then shifts to the band prepping and grilling a spread of rib-eye steaks, lamb chops and potatoes on the open flame. Among many other excellent quotes issued during the actual preparation of the provisions, Austin offers “If the food is not somewhat attacking you then you have not reached flavor nexus.”
Get a tetanus shot and bring a fork and/or diaper for TODAY IS THE DAY’s “Brutally Delicious” episode playing RIGHT HERE.
In support of the band’s tenth LP, Animal Mother, released in October via Southern Lord Recordings, TODAY IS THE DAY is currently murdering the continent on their brutal trek with Lazer/Wulf. Now over two weeks into the month-long tour, the band raids Oakland this evening on the way to the final week-and-a-half of dates through the northern end of the country and into Canada before coming to a smoldering close on May 24th in Rochester, New York. Just several days after the North American tour closes, TODAY IS THE DAY returns to Europe for nearly another month of dates with Weedeater, the caravan beginning at Temples Fest in Bristol, UK on May 29th and coming to a close on June 21st at Hellfest in Clisson, France.
