Windsor, ON ghetto tech metallers THE APEX will be hitting the road for an Eastern Canadian tour across Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes supporting Erimha and Killitorous from November 18th to December 7th.
“We look forward to hitting the road again! Touring is our favourite part of being in a band and it’s going to be awesome to make new friends and fans plus share the stage with Erimha and Killitorous!” comments drummer Tyson Taylor.
In addition to the band’s tour news, THE APEX has unleashed their latest music video ‘If Detroit River Could Speak’ in support of their debut self-titled album released earlier this year.
“If Detroit River Could Speak is about our local area (Windsor/Detroit) and how our economy has declined. It touches upon how this area was rich with automobile manufacturing and the streets were “paved with gold” before the decline. It’s a feeling as if the story is being told by Detroit River, which divides these “2 cities of rot”.” comments drummer Tyson Taylor.
The video is directed and edited by Mike Budinsky of Urban Grind Media and can be watched at the following link:

BIO:
The Apex formed in August of 2013.
They are a collective of individuals from the Ontario metal community, whom over the years have come together from past bands such as, Closed Casket Funeral, Dismata, Blood Shot Eye, The Coalition Design, and Corprophemia to form The Apex.
In a true culmination of talent, dedication, and timing, this group has created a unique hometown sound that is now being called “Windsor Ghetto Tech”. The brutal sonic assault of their music coupled with the emotional reckless abandonment of their live performance, have drawn stanch comparisons to Meshuggah and classic Dillinger Escape Plan rounded out with a distinctly Canadian flair.
In July, 2014 they entered Shark Tank Productions studio in Windsor, Ontario to begin recording their debut self-titled full length album, “The Apex”. They hired engineer Nick Kinnish of Serafina Productions (Johnny Truent, Architects, and more) to aid them in capturing their sound accurately. In November, 2014 they completed their recording and announced the independent release date of February 21st, 2015.
TOUR EXPERIENCE
This band is no stranger to hitting the pavement to support the music they love to make. In their 15+ years of experience creating music in previous bands, they’ve been support on tour for bands like: Cephalic Carnage, All Shall Perish, Despised Icon, Cryptopsy, Today Is The Day, and Ion Dissonance to name a few. In previous bands they’ve also shared the stage on festivals with bands like: SOD, Venom, Obituary, Cradle Of Filth, Earth Crisis, God Forbid, Skinless, Beneath The Massacre and more to crowds up to 7500+ in North America.
As their current lineup “The Apex”, they have already invested in a mid-sized tour bus and have began to book many shows and festivals across Canada for 2015.
