Closure In Moscow to Release ‘First Temple’ on Vinyl, Announce Tour with Protest The Hero

Australian progressive rock band Closure In Moscow announced that they will be releasing their classic debut full-length First Temple on vinyl this spring as they support Protest The Hero on the 10th-anniversary tour of Fortress.

No official date has been announced for the vinyl release of First Temple, but the record is available now for preorder via Equal Vision Records. First Temple saw the band breaking in the United States upon its release in 2009 and has since seen them become regarded as one of the most beloved acts in the world of progressive rock.

Getting their start in 2006, Closure in Moscow quickly conquered the rock world in their native Australia. Alternating between explosive, progressive rock anthems and deep, hypnotic compositions, the band’s well-timed entrance on the scene would soon garner fans and critical acclaim alike internationally. Their big break in the United States came in 2009 with the release of First Temple on Equal Vision Records.

 


In support of the First Temple’s vinyl release, the band will be playing the record in its entirety while touring Canada and the western United States with Protest The Hero and Thank You Scientist, this Spring. Check out the tour dates, below.
