They now return with their most uncompromising and vicious offering yet, Total World Domination, which is set for a June 16th North American release and a June 22nd release throughout Europe. This new effort perfectly blends the band's old-school, beat you down hardcore style with a thrash metal infusion resulting in material that will tear your face off. The scathing new track, "Still Hating," is now streaming at the band's newly designed MySpace page [http://www.myspace.com/swornenemy](http://www.myspace.com/swornenemy). Prepare to be annihilated. These maniacs recently embarked on a massive North American headlining tour, Trendkilla 09. The run, which kicked off on May 1st also features For The Fallen Dreams, ABACABB, Suffokate and Thick As Blood in the supporting slots. Either see below or visit their MySpace page to view their complete touring itinerary. Lorenzo Antonucci (guitars) further comments: "It's been a long time coming, we haven\\'t hit North America in over a year. We are very excited to be playing all the markets we are hitting on this run because most of them we have never even played before. We are playing the Blood For Blood cover song that we recorded for our new album exclusively for Europe, but the people in the U.S. can catch it live. We have some amazing new Mamaluke TV footage coming soon. Just wait, you won't believe this shit. "This is also our test ground for playing the new songs off of our new album, Total World Domination, which is our hardest album yet. It's a good mix of As Real As It Gets and Maniacal, but fucking harder. I know everyone says that their new album is the best album yet and the fans are probably sick of hearing that but I must say this is a pretty fucking ignorant album. The kids have been going off for the new stuff and it's awesome to play live." http://www.centurymedia.com/newsdetailed.aspx?IdNews=8137&IdCompany=2 Century Media Records Century Media Records Wed, 13 May 2009 00:00:00 GMT SWORN ENEMY are one of those few bands that can never be derailed, no matter how many obstacles and hardships are thrown at them.

These Brooklyn-based maniacs are currently wrapping up a very successful European trek and will embark on a massive North American headlining tour, Trendkilla 09, this spring.

This is our 1st headlining tour since the inaugural Trendkilla run back in 07' with Kataklsym and As Blood Runs Black. This Trendkilla line up is just as awesome as we are taking out For The Fallen Dreams, ABACABB, Suffokate and Thick As Blood. This will be a mosh explosion. We also cover the classic Blood For Blood song 'All Fucked Up' in our live show and that always gets the fists flying.

The band spent the majority of 2008 touring the world with such acclaimed acts as Hatebreed, Earth Crisis, Divine Heresy, Terror, among countless others in support of their latest effort, Maniacal, which was widely renowned as the group's best and heaviest offering yet. Now less than a year since that album's release, the band are preparing to enter the studio once again with longtime producer Tim Lambesis (As I Lay Dying vocalist). Their relentless schedule begins by heading to San Diego to start recording on January 3rd, which will be immediately followed up by a 44 show European tour with Freya (Karl from Earth Crisis), Waking The Cadaver and Cool Dudes Chillin, followed by treks of Israel, Australia, Japan and Korea. This will be followed by the Trendkilla II tour in late April/May throughout North America (Bands TBA). Look for their much anticipated new effort in stores spring 2009. Lorenzo Antonucci (guitars, vocals) further comments: "I\\'m very excited about this album because our writing process has been better then ever. I\\'ve been a part of all the writing for every record and I feel this is our best foundation yet. We took it back to As Real As It Gets with a little of BOTE and Maniacal in it. The sound is way faster and more pissed off then ever, harder then ever and a lot more ignorant. It\\'s going to be fun working with Tim again. This will be the third album he\\'s been apart of. This also marks our first recording with Sid (bass) and JRad (drums), so we are all very excited about that. This record will be a great one!"

He recently channeled all of his extra energy and time to creating an outside of the box, no holds barred type of TV show, appropriately named MAMALUKE TV, that is definitely going to take many by surprise. This show is a behind-the-scenes, uncensored look into life of maniacs on the road as Lorenzo asks the questions few are willing to ask. Click either of the links below to check out the hilarious debut episode. [http://www.youtube.com/mamaluketv](http://www.youtube.com/mamaluketv) Antonucci further comments: "This is Lorenzo from the MAMALUKE TV show, some of you may know me from the band Sworn Enemy and some of you may know me as the animal at a show or in the streets. This is my TV show that interviews band members from all kinds of genres in the metal and hardcore world, musician to musician. I\\'m out there interviewing my friends and other band members about everyday life on the road, and of course I live it as well, so I know the real deal. There\\'s some funny shit that happens so my plan is to bring this madness to the masses. "MAMALUKE TV's inaugural episode features my interview with hardcore legend Scott Vogel (vocals) of Terror taken from this past year's "Firestorm Fest" tour. The next few episodes will feature interviews with Maurizo (vocals) of Kataklysm, James (vocals) of Origin, John (vocals) of Warbringer and Karl of Earth Crisis. "Listen, I'm a mamaluke, you're a mamaluke. This is an interactive show for everyone to be a part of. We're going to update you with who we plan on interviewing over the next few months with hopes of you sending in some questions for us to ask. If you have an idea: send them, you have a question: send them to our MySpace page. I've been touring over eight years and I've become very close with lots of people in the scene. Let me know who you want me to interview or what you think can make the show better. I hope you enjoy the first episode and it only gets crazier from here. Enjoy" http://www.centurymedia.com/newsdetailed.aspx?IdNews=8042&IdCompany=2 Century Media Records Century Media Records Wed, 15 Oct 2008 00:00:00 GMT SWORN ENEMY have toured the world relentlessly throughout 2008 and continues adding onto their undying schedule as they prepare to embark on a North American run alongside Dying Fetus, Origin and Thy Will Be Done. This trek, which kicks off on May 9th, marks the group's third trek of North America in support of Maniacal and they show no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

Lorenzo Antonucci (guitars) further comments on the upcoming tour: "We very excited to be on tour with Dying Fetus and we feel that it's going to be a rager. We have not toured with Fetus yet and it's definitely a different crowd for us. We've done tours with Six Feet Under and Skinless before and we've always had a blast playing in front of the death metal crowd. We are going to be playing the more our metal sounding songs and hopefully the crowd enjoys them. "I also wanted to announce my new YouTube show called Mamaluke TV. It features interviews with band members and behind the scene footage of what really goes on in the touring world. It's probably the funniest shit I\\'ve done in my life and if you know me you should be excited. We will hopefully have something up online and our MySpace page in the next few weeks. You ain't gonna believe this shit. We look forward to seeing you all soon."

Comments guitarist Lorenzo Antonucci: "We just finished the Firestorm Fest with Earth Crisis, Terror and Shai Hulud, and though it was an honor to be part of such an amazing tour, we can\\'t wait to bang our heads with Divine Heresy. This tour is going to be a rager, and we are very happy to be a part of it."

"People sometimes forget that we\\'ve toured with heavy bands like Slayer, Cradle of Filth and Six Feet Under,\\" Antonucci says. \\"Our best tours have always been with metal bands, and we\\'re excited to once again be the underdog. We appreciate having the opportunity to show people just how heavy we can be. It\\'s time to rage!"

Sal (vocals) states: "We hooked up with the amazing director David Brodsky (GWAR, The Red Chord) for this video and are stoked with the end result. The location was an abandoned psychiatric ward, so I guess you can say it pretty much fit what we were looking for. The storyline is loosely based on a father and the son that have done wrong to each other, and both, in order to achieve their 'solace,' believe that they'd be better off without the other. rightly or wrongly. We hope you enjoy the madness." Click the following link below to check it out.
