NEW 2 DISC TOUR EDITION OF TESSERACT™S MASTERPIECE ALBUM ˜WAR OF BEING™

TesseracT™s ˜War Of Being™ was met with widespread acclaim upon its release in 2023, regarded by many as their strongest & most ambitious work to date. What followed was a significant rise in the band™s stopping power, with sold out worldwide touring, millions of streams & a die-hard fanbase to boot. Over the past year, TesseracT™s rise from respected cult act to one of the biggest prog-metal bands in the world has been nothing short of extraordinary.

Now, ˜War Of Being™ receives a special Tour Edition release on Kscope to coincide with the ˜War of Being Part 2 Tour™ “ an extensive run of European shows kicking off in January 2025. The new edition includes 3 bonus tracks recorded live from TesseracT™s headline set at Radar Festival 2024 (Manchester, UK) where they were joined on stage by Choir Noir™s Kat Marsh.

Speaking on the new tour edition, TesseracT bassist Amos Williams said: 'It has been a wild adventure for TesseracT since the release of ˜War Of Being™ back in September 2023. We have travelled the world & experienced many career highlights during these last 12 months, or so. There's a sense of great fulfilment, but also a tinge of sadness as you know that the unique campaign that led into the release of ˜War Of Being™ has passed. So, it's truly awesome to be able to release a Tour Edition version, that as a bonus, includes live recordings from a very special headline show we performed in the summer of 2024 where we were joined on stage by the indomitable Choir Noir (featuring Kat Marsh/Cestra, whom many of you will know, that along with Producer Peter Miles, was part of the team that brought ˜War Of Being™ from demos to album). Exploring this exciting side of ourselves & bringing the full realisation of the album production to stage, has given us a passion & a drive. One that we're looking forward to developing more & bringing to the stage as we begin the War Of Being World Tour Part Two this coming January 2025 in Europe.'

This special Tour Edition of ˜War Of Being™ is presented on transparent Red & Black Marble 2LP & includes 3 bonus tracks recorded live at Radar Festival in July 2024 “ ˜Natural Disaster™, ˜Tender™ & ˜War Of Being™.

An immersive & fantastic experience that exists, fittingly, deep within its own musical bubble
“ CLASSIC ROCK UK

The virtuosity, intelligence & refinement of this reflective modern progressive metal make ˜War Of Being™ one of the best albums of the year & a great success for TesseracT.
