Joey Jordison’s new project VIMIC are gearing up to play their first UK shows this March.
The former Slipknot drummer’s band have also announced that release of their debut album, Open Your Omen will follow soon after.
Joey said: “Hello to all our fans in the UK! It’s about time, isn’t it? It’s been a long road getting here, but it’s finally arrived and we’re on our way soon. We are thrilled and excited to bring VIMIC’S music to you live, in the flesh and blood, and describe sonically what your support over the years means to all of us. This is going to be one hell of a run and a killer kick-off to the future! Thank you all!!!! We hope you’ll come out and join us, as you are just as much a part of the band as we are. We look forward to seeing you very soon. Let’s go!
VIMIC’s debut album came to life in the face Jordison’s his most trying time. He was diagnosed with the often permanently debilitating neurological condition, Acute Transverse Myelitis. He spent three months in hospital during 2012 and underwent a course of intensive physical rehabilitation and training.
Joey continued: “The riffs, lyrics and drums of Open Your Omen will tell you a lot. I did this record when I was coming out of the Acute Transverse Myelitis condition. It’s literally what saved me and helped me get back to where I’m healthier than ever. These guys and this album pushed me to not only re-learn how to walk, but how to play the drums again. Open Your Omen is the rebirth of the rest of my life.”
