"For the first time in 20 years the legendary drone/doom supergroup Khanate will step food on North American shores to drown us in sound on the heels of their 2024 Sacred Bones reunion album To Be Cruel," wrote Prepare The Ground organizers.
"The Flenser's own post-punk pioneers Have A Nice Life join Prepare the Ground for only their second show ever in Toronto as they tackle performing in the gorgeous, hallowed halls of Trinity St. Paul church. Both artists join the previously announced Yob (playing two sets including Atma in full), Kylesa (first North American reunion show), and the concurrently announced the Atlas Moth, Falls of Rauros, Steve Von Till, Pygmy Lush, Midwife & more.
