American death metal band Blood Incantation have announced their first Irish show at The Academy on October 27.

The gig is part of their upcoming European tour celebrating the release of their fourth album, Absolute Elsewhere, last October.

"Absolute Elsewhere is our most potent audial extract/musical trip yet," said frontman Paul Reidl. "Like the soundtrack to a Herzog-style sci-fi epic about the history of/battle for human consciousness itself, via a 70s prog album played by a 90s death metal band from the future."
