BRUCE LAMONT will kick off a run of North American live dates later this fall alongside Kevin Hufnagel (Dysrhythmia, Gorguts, Sabbath Assembly et al). The journey will commence September 29th in Brooklyn, New York and wind its way through a total of sixteen venues upon its conclusion October 16th in Chicago, Illinois. See all confirmed dates below.
LAMONT will be touring in support of his second solo outing, Broken Limbs Excite No Pity, released earlier this year via War Crime Recordings. Tracked at Chicago’s Minbal Studios with Sanford Parker (Buried At Sea, Mirrors For Psychic Warfare, Corrections House et al), the record finds LAMONT again handling all vocals, saxophone, guitar, percussion, and electronics, and demonstrating an uncanny ability to create hypnotic, ominous, emotionally resonant, and even somehow transcendent arrangements of patterned sound. These aren’t traditional “songs” as you hear on the radio. They’re literally sound art. This is an album you dunk your head in like a bucket of ice water, and when you pull it back out, you’re not the same person you were before.
Broken Limbs Excite No Pity is out now on CD, digital, and limited vinyl formats. For orders, and to stream the record in its stunning entirety, visit THIS LOCATION.

“…nuanced and dark, touching upon peaceful moments at one end and flying into a manic rage at the other.” – Noisey
“…a strong showcase of his understanding of dynamics and musical duality.” – Metal Injection
“…a fantastic release for anyone who appreciates experimental and left field approaches to heavy music.” – Blabbermouth
“…a haunting mix of industrial noise, dark ambient, and other sinister yet meditative sounds,” – BrooklynVegan on “8-9-3”
“Leaning heavily on a minimal drum loop and a guitar tremolo that sounds lifted from a Dick Dale or Ennio Morricone record, LAMONT’s new song sounds like a lost Nick Cave recording – sexual, minimal yet dense with darkness and subtext and ultimately beautiful and well executed.” – Revolver on “Goodbye Electric Sunday”
“…a musical odyssey that ranges from eerie and desolate to unhinged and cacophonous, with a low key, cool interlude and a melancholy, reflective conclusion. It is truly a unique listening experience that inhabits the less frequented genres of avant garde metal and experimental jazz.” – Indy Metal Vault
