Tours: Institute (with Destruction Unit)
Austin, TX punk act Institute (absolutely not this Institute) is set to embark on a month of tour dates that will bring them into June. The band kicks off their tour in Austin on May 3rd, heading north up the east coast to play a few Canadian shows before heading back south through the US midwest. At the Toronto gig the group will meet up with Arizona's Destruction Unit, who join the tour for a week of shows.
Institute features members of Wiccans, Glue, and Recide. The band currently has a 12-inch vinyl pressing of the their demo available on Deranged Records. A new 7-inch is expected out on Katorga Works in the near future.
