US metal beasts INCITE are pleased to announce eight headline UK shows in January 2020, in support of their widely acclaimed latest album, Built to Destroy. The UK run kicks off on January 11 in Bournemouth and wraps up on January 20 in London. INCITE will be joined on all dates by special guests Sworn Amongst and Death Remains.
 
INCITE frontman Richie Cavalera states, “UK metalheads!! We’re starting 2020 real heavy with a killer headline run with our brothers in Sworn Amongst and Death Remains! These shows are going to be ragers, so don’t miss out!!! We will be announcing the European dates for this tour very soon!”
 
This will also be the first chance for UK fans to see INCITE performing with their new guitarist, who was revealed today as Eli Santana (Huntress/Holy Grail), replacing Dru Rome.
 
Richie adds, “INCITE family, we welcome with a huge hell yes Eli Santana as our new guitar shredder. He brings an awesome vibe and incredible guitar skills to the band. We couldn’t be happier to see where this new chapter will take us!”
 
INCITE perfected their signature brand of extreme sounds playing shows with the likes of DevilDriver, Crowbar, Brujeria, Soulfly, Cavalera Conspiracy, and Six Feet Under.

Latest album Built to Destroy, released in 2019 on Minus Head Records, is a visceral, urgent, and voracious distillation of modern heavy metal, with distinctive reverence for the best of the past, that showcased over 11 straight-up anthems. INCITE blend the New Wave of American Heavy Metal with bittersweet moments of thrash, undeniably overwhelming Southwestern groove, and aggressive catharsis.
