Check out the 2010 US tour photos here at http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewPicture&friendID=4401296&albumId=2837047. Stephan says: "I want to personally thank you all for coming out to the shows, attending our Hot Topic signing, and for all the pictures and videos you all posted!" And he adds some great news: "I will be heading back into the studio in a couple days to begin work on the next record."

Here's a statement from the band:"The time has come for us to move on. Some of us have recently reached a new chapter in their lives, starting families, buying houses and pursuing other careers to make it all happen. Writing music, touring and leaving home for months at a time is slowly becoming impossible because of that. We all decided that it’d be best to pull the plug now and end things right. It’s hard to believe we started this band almost 10 years ago already. At first, Despised Icon was mostly just an excuse to hang out, write brutal slam riffs and play local shows once in a while. With your support, we got the opportunity to actually play music for a living, make friends around the world, be MVPs and travel to places we never even dreamed of visiting in our lifetime. Thank you all for some of the best times of our lives.

Gleis 22, Münster, Germany30th May 2010
Wolves in the Throne Room
WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM from the US have established a unique standing in the Metal scene by crafting their most distinctive mixture of Nordic Black Metal with elements of Thrash Metal, Postrock, Shoegaze and on several occasions even Ambient. Actually redundant to say that cocktail is far off from being an easy listening adventure, and most likely the reason why the band's recognition remained at a comparatively low level first , until the second album 'Two Hunters' and most notably the latest full-length release 'Black Cascade' from 2009 pushed their reputation to an international scale. Tours through Europe, including Germany, followed and now they're coming back to the Krauts to sweep them away at Gleis 22 in Münster.
