The “Quest Beyond Our Minds” tour – which sounds like either a metal odyssey or a bad psychedelic trip – features rotating openers including DAWN OF OUROBOROS (fun fact: their vocalist could out-scream a banshee), ARMED FOR APOCALYPSE (CA’s answer to earthquake noises), NOTT (whose name is a palindrome, because metalheads love symmetry), and EXIST (featuring a dude from REVOCATION because everyone’s in 12 bands these days).
“It’s been a long time coming, which makes it that much more special to announce that we will finally be returning to the USA for a run of shows this summer/fall. We’ve got a handful of killer bands joining us on select dates, to get us to and from the ProgPower fest in Atlanta. We look forward seeing our American fans out on the road!”
