Norwegian extreme metallers PANTHEON I have been confirmed to support ABSU on the 23-date European tour due to take place this autumn. The band’s cellist, classically trained musician LIVE JULIANNE, explained about PANTHEON I’s inclusion on the tour: “We didn’t think originally that we would be able to do the tour because of other prior commitments. We had really put it completely out of our minds when the slot suddenly became available again just as we were re-scheduling a few things ourselves, so it all worked out perfectly. Playing live is something we all enjoy, and we have been looking forward to touring with the new album since we finished recording it. We’re scheduled to do a 6-date tour in Norway in September before the European tour kicks off, so right now we’re busy rehearsing and preparing. PANTHEON I never do things by halves, and we’re ready to hit the road with a vengeance ”.
