Epitaph Tour now on the road

Coming this fall, two of the hottest rock and metal bands in the world, Every Time I Die and Bring Me The Horizon, will converge for the first time, along with support band Oh Sleeper and Architects (UK), for the year’s most brutal tour, presented by Epitaph Records in partnership with Microsoft® ZUNE Pass®, Live Nation, Alternative Press, Hot Topic, Vans and MySpace.

Buffalo’s notorious hardcore-rockers Every Time I Die will tour in support of their aptly named fifth studio album, New Junk Aesthetic, due out Sept. 15. Upon the band’s recent debut of “The Marvelous Slut” on the Epitaph Warped Tour Sampler, fans are in frenzy to hear more of the new record, which the band insists is “on the verge of blowing the earth a huge gaping asshole.” ETID recently unveiled several other new tracks to unsuspecting crowds across Europe while on tour with Gallows.

“We're all well aware of the fact that when bands play unreleased songs on tour,” explains the boisterously comedic frontman Keith Buckley, “there is an unspoken but symbiotic relationship between them and the crowd that the crowd will remain still - judging what they're hearing- while the band works out the kinks and looks for the most appropriate places to jump kick. I assure you that not only have we already perfectly choreographed with a trained professional, you will be unable to stand still at any moment. These demons will not be exorcized.”

Speaking of demons, co-headlining the tour is Britain’s hottest and most turbulent metal act Bring Me The Horizon. Ushering in a new, “New Wave of British Heavy Metal” for Millennials, BMTH are quickly becoming one of the country’s hottest young groups. Doubling the size of their crowds with each visit, the Sheffield hellions return to pack venues across the US with the most intense fans in support of their torrential new album Suicide Season, which features snarling cuts like “Diamonds Aren’t Forever” and “Chelsea Smile.” The upcoming tour marks BMTH’s fifth tour of the US and will undoubtedly be their most anticipated yet.

“Were super stoked to be coming back over to the states in September!,” remarks drummer Matt Nicholls. “Even more stoked that were coming over to tour with a bunch of amazing bands such as Every Time I Die, Oh Sleeper and our good friends from Brighton, Architects! Hope everyone’s just as excited as we are because it’s gonna be an awesome tour! See you soon!!”
