New Orleans thrash metal band Exhorder has announced their final US headlining tour, titled The Tour Of Unsound Minds: Act II. The tour begins on September 25 in Dunbar, West Virginia, and concludes on October 18 in Evansville, Indiana. The tour will feature support from Intoxicated, No/Más, Phantom, and Parabellum on select dates.
The tour marks the end of Exhorder's live activities, following a twenty-seven-year absence after their 1992 Roadrunner Records release. The band returned in 2019 with Mourn The Southern Skies, released through Nuclear Blast Records, and followed it with Defectum Omnium in 2024 — a Latin phrase meaning "The Failure of All." The album, produced by Exhorder and mixed by Jens Bogren, draws heavily on the band's early roots.
In addition to the tour, Exhorder will unveil new merchandise during the run, including items not previously available.
Separately, the final solo album of original material by Paul Di’Anno, former Iron Maiden lead singer, is now available on colored vinyl through BraveWords Records. The release, titled Warhorse, is described as a "tight as fuck" heavy metal record with high-energy performance. The album is now available worldwide at mvdshop.com/collections/bravewords-records.
