CROWBAR will return to the road this Summer on a US headlining tour with Spirit Adrift! The Riff Beast Tour will commence on July 22nd at Ripplefest in Austin, Texas, and run through August 27th at Tattoo The Earth Fest in Worcester, Massachusetts. Tickets are on sale now! See all confirmed dates below.
Comments vocalist/guitarist Kirk Windstein, “We are looking so forward to our Summer 2022 headlining tour! We truly believe in our latest album Zero And Below and can’t wait to bring you a great set list of old and new CROWBAR. See you on tour!”
CROWBAR will be touring in support of their critically-adored Zero And Below full-length released earlier this year on MNRK Heavy. Produced, mixed, and mastered by Duane Simoneaux at OCD Recording And Production in Metairie, Louisiana, Zero And Below is the bandâs most unforgivably doom-driven record since their 1998 landmark effort, Odd Fellows Rest. Led by Windstein, with guitarist Matt Brunson, bassist Shane Wesley, and drummer Tommy Buckley, songs like âChemical Godz,â âItâs Always Worth The Gain,â and âBleeding From Every Hole,â are unapologetic emotional outpourings, with a bare-knuckle resolve alongside its soul-searching vulnerability, reliably delivered with crushing heaviness. Decibel Magazine hailed a record thatâs, âas dark and heavy as a midnight avalanche.â Kerrang! gushed, âCROWBAR have cemented themselves as a pillar of sludge metal⦠delivering guitar hooks with more bite force than an alligator.â Added Metal Injection, âItâs slow (but not too slow) and dark and heavy as the swamps are deep. Their music makes you feel like youâre trudging in the marshlands around Lake Martin in the middle of the night while being slowly pursued by some deviously hungry gators.â
Zero And Below is available on CD, LP, cassette, and digitally. Preview and purchase the record at THIS LOCATION.

âCROWBARâs latest continues their current run of quality, the proud NOLA natives further exploring their internal and external demons through the heaviest heaping of mud anywhere.â â MetalSucks
ââ¦heavy enough for the metalheads, raw enough for the punks, and catchy enough for straight-up rock fans.â â BrooklynVegan

âWindstein and co. have delivered another platter of tar-thick despondency and desolation that only upholds and strengthens their already mighty stature.â â Distorted Sound
â31 years after their debut â CROWBAR still sounds like a ten ton hammer.â â KNAC.com
