GOREFILIA TOUR IS OVER!
[2013.06.08]
After 18 months, more than 40 shows played, more than 30 cities destroyed, 7
different countries burnt to ashes and a whole bunch of obliterated venues, our
job is done!
Yes, the Gorefilia touring cycle is finally over.
Last Saturday we played the last show of this promotion cycle that was also our
last show in Portugal for a long time… and what an epic way to do it!
It has been a hell of a ride, with the natural ups and downs, but in the end we
can really say it was probably the best promotion cycle we’ve ever done in 16
years of non-stop grinding.
We had the pleasure to play Gorefilia in the most wonderful cities for
the most brutal audiences, working with some of the greatest promoters in
Europe, but now the time has come for us to stop and focus on our future
endeavors.
As such, we must share some words of appreciation and respect to all those who
made this possible.
Our eternal gratitude goes out, in the first place, to all the beautiful people
in Paços de Ferreira (PT), Porto (PT), Barroselas (PT), Lisbon (PT), Barreiro

It’s because of you that we kept running and your support will NEVER
be forgotten!
We would also like to thank all the promoters and staff that worked with us on
this journey! Thanks to Obscene Extreme Festival (CZ), Extremefest (GER),

Thanks for the great gigs and great times!
Thanks also to our session vocalist and long time friend Ricardo S. for
accepting the challenge of spending 18 months on the road with us without even
blinking after our last frontman’s abrupt departure. Without you we would hardly
make it!
And finally, thanks to Dave Rotten (Xtreem Records) and André Matos
and Daniel Makosh (Raising Legends/Raging Planet Records) for all the
trust and support on the Gorefilia release.
Now we will return to our HQ and focus on the next releases that are already
being planned. We are expecting to tell you something about it real soon.
This does not mean that we will cease our live activity. To tell you the truth
it’s quite the opposite, as we are finishing details for some new shows and
tours for 2014.
However, this was probably our last show in Portugal for a handful of reasons.
Z. Pedro says: “It’s really great to realize that we have accomplished
all our objectives for this album, but now it’s time to move on and start
working on new stuff. We’ve got some really great plans over the table for 2014,
which we expect to be a great year for the cannibals. Expect new stuff real
soon.”
Commenting, Diogo P. states: “After thousands of miles it’s time to put
an end on this tour. I would personally like to thank all the people involved in
all the shows we’ve played and all the fans and friends that we met on the road.
Your support is our life!”
Eduardo F. comments: “MOSHFEST was truly an epic night! Our
last show in our home country couldn’t have been better. Thanks to everyone that
showed up and grinded with us Gorefilia for one last time. Now is the
time for us to work on some new stuff and to return to make 2014 another
crazy-ass year!”
Ricardo S. says: “It was with great pleasure that I accepted to join in
with the guys after almost 10 years away from the band and the stages, for an
epic adventure through all the european countries that this Gorefilia tour
passed. Great shows in amazing cities, new friends, meeting again some old ones,
is always nice. Let’s see what the future brings! For all the lucky ones that
saw the last show of the tour, thanks for your support!”
António C. states: “18 crazy months after the release of Gorefilia
our job is done! Thanks to all the people we met on tour and especially to the
ones who supported us all the way. We’re really excited to go back to the
rehearsal place and work some new stuff for you. Special thanks to all the
grinders that showed up in Benavente last Saturday for making the final show in
our country unforgettable.”
Thank you all! Keep grinding!
