LITURGY Opening for BORIS

While Liturgy is making the first US tour in support of Aesthethica, the Brooklyn-based band has major news on more shows coming this fall, including performances at the Museum of Modern Art in New York; opening for Japan's psych/metal stars Boris on the east coast; and playing at the Pop Montreal International Music Festival, along with the Hopscotch Music Festival, in September.

Liturgy at MoMA - July 29, part of "Grand Openings Return of the Blogs" "MoMA's Performance Program resumes with a new commission by the New York-based artist collective Grand Openings. In collaboration with musicians, performance art scholars, sound artists, filmmakers, writers, and friends, the group is composing a multifaceted live program that relates to the history of performance art in general, as well as MoMA's particular institutional structure." "Liturgy resonates with Grand Openings' zombie move(s) while Mari Mukai constructs a house. " For more information, see:

Someone should tell the vocalist of Liturgy not to make any more silly manifestos, otherwise he is going to be eating shit for the rest of his life. Liturgy, the band though, get a lot of undeserved crap.
