Promotion
The band originally released fliers and studio reports that suggested a new album was in the works. Later, on November 10, 2011, a song entitled "Ascension Sickness" was leaked over YouTube.[4]
Supporting tour
Following a warm-up headlining gig in Trenton, New Jersey, Abigail Williams will be providing support for Norwegian black metal band Mayhem as their massive thirty-six date North American tour goes underway in Baltimore. Hate and Keep of Kalessin will both provide support for the entire trek as well, and Abigail Williams' labelmates Woe will also perform in eight cities of the tour.[5]
Following the tour with Mayhem, Abigail Williams continued touring through the New Year in support of Becoming, with full stateside tours supporting Dark Funeral and then Deicide already confirmed for the first quarter of 2012, and much more in the planning stages for the months ahead.[5]
