NEW 2 DISC TOUR EDITION OF TESSERACT’S MASTERPIECE ALBUM ‘WAR OF BEING’
PRESENTED ON LIMITED RED/BLACK MARBLE VINYL, WITH NEW HALF-SPEED AUDIO MASTER. INCLUDES BONUS EP FEATURING 3 TRACKS FROM THE BAND’S HEADLINE SET AT RADAR FESTIVAL 2024 (MANCHESTER, UK)

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’.
