Vancouver, British Columbia-based orchestral death/doom metal quintet TRIBUNAL continues to book new tour dates across the continent in support of their acclaimed second LP, In Penitence And Ruin, released earlier this year on 20 Buck Spin.

From August 21st through 24th, TRIBUNAL will perform in Portland, Seattle, Vancouver, and Kelowna, a co-headlining run with New Skeletal Faces. The following week, TRIBUNAL will play two shows on Vancouver Island – in Victoria September 5th and Nanaimo September 6th – with support from Kayas and Empress. The band will play In Penitence And Ruin in its entirety at both the Vancouver and Victoria shows.

TRIBUNAL’s 2023 debut The Weight Of Remembrance set a high bar for becoming one of the year’s most notable and praised doom releases, leading Decibel Magazine to include the incoming record in their annual list of most anticipated releases for 2025. The band has taken their time and crafted an opus of enormous scope to echo evermore through halls long abandoned.

Conjured by TRIBUNAL’s new form as a fully fleshed-out quintet – with founding bassist/cellist/vocalist Soren Mourne and guitarist/vocalist Etienne Flinn joined by guitarist Jessica Yang, drummer Julia Geaman, and keyboardist Dallas Alice – In Penitence And Ruin has a wider lens of cohesion and maturity weaving together the widow’s wail of doleful strings, chilling keys, and percussion that tolls like the iron bell of fate

With additional vocals performed by Rory SayIn Penitence And Ruin was produced by TRIBUNAL and Jesse Gander at Rain City Recorders who also recorded the drums and mixed the album. The songs were then mastered by Greg Chandler at Priory Recording Studios. The cover painting and lettering were crafted by the band’s own Soren Mourne, and the album is completed with layout by Chimere Noire and photography by Sav Bagshaw.

In Penitence And Ruin is out now on LP, CD, MC, and digital formats at the 20 Buck Spin webshop HERE and Bandcamp HERE, and the video for “Incarnadine” is playing HERE.
