ONE of Australia’s most relentless heavy-hitting bands is making a return to the stage late this year.

The Mark of Cain is celebrating the vinyl re-issue of their breakthrough album, 1995’s Rollins-helmed Ill at Ease, with a special tour where they will feature the album in full.

The Ill at Ease vinyl re-issue will include the follow-up remix EP Rock and Roll and their version of “Degenerate Boy” from the Idiot Box soundtrack. A blood-red vinyl release of their set from the 1996 Livid festival is also being released at the same time. These can be pre-ordered now.
