Savannah's Black Tusk have faced an immense and unexpected tragedy in late 2014 when founding bassist/vocalist Jonathan Athon passed away after a motorcycle accident in his hometown. Now, as a testament to his lasting legacy on the heavy music scene, the band is releasing Pillars Of Ash, their final recordings with Athon, on January 29th, 2016 via Relapse Records. You can stream the first released track from the record, "God's On Vacation," right now here via YouTube.




Pillars Of Ash was recorded with Toxic Holocaust's Joel Grind behind the boards and features artwork by Jeremy Hush (Skeletonwitch, Rwake).
