tourdates

Century Media Records have announced that TesseracT are preparing to film a music video for their track 'Eden' off the debut album 'One'. Working on the video, among others, will be director Ganesh Rao and director of photography Jonny Greenwald. They also state that behind-the-scenes photos from the video filming will be posted soon.

About the video bassist Amos Williams said: "We like to keep a close eye on what's happening in the underground and the scene from which we were born. One day a jaw-dropping, stunning video appears on got-djent.com. I mean beautiful, cinematic, and emotive. Ganesh Rao created not only a great example of 'djent' with his entirely self created EMPYREAN project, but as director of the video, made something that has truly risen the bar for independent creators. Now, as it happened we were looking for a director to work with us for our upcoming video for 'Eden', so it was a no-brainer to approach Ganesh to try and make it happen [...]."

Moreover, the dates of 'Saints And Sinners' tour were announced. The tour will feature TesseracT with Between the Buried and Me and Animals As Leaders. The tour dates are as follows:
