Erratum: the 'unreleased' Further Seems Forever track we made note of at their purevolume.com page was, in fact, released on Deep Elm Records way back in the day. Heads-up reader Pliggly-Wiggly emailed to tell us that.
Moving on.
Underoath, Poison the Well and As Cities Burn will be touring in May with help from Spitfire(first leg, in support of their new album Self-Help) and Since By Man(second leg). The dates are over here.
With All Sincerity have apparently broken up for the second time. We're working on confirming this, and it would suck, because they're doing something genuinely different in this oversaturated hardcore/metal scene thing. [lambgoat]
Society's Finest, on the other hand, may or may not have broken up one or more times in their lengthy time together, but they're firing on all cylinders nowadays, and have also posted a new song on their myspace page.
May 28th will be a great day for metal here in Ottawa, as a mother of a tour touches down at Babylon downtown. Check it out: headliners Between The Buried And Me with openers August Burns Red, Chiodos and The Number Twelve Looks Like You. Great bill. I'll be there.
Hold up: earlier that month, May 2nd, A Life Once Lost are in town, also at Babylon. May's shaping up to be a very busy month for shows.
If you're thinking about hitting up Lollapalooza in Chicago's Grant Park(August 4th-6th), check out the official website for the entire lineup, featuring Red Hot Chili Peppers and Queens of the Stone Age, among many others. [theprp]
Go watch Thrice's new video for 'Red Sky' over here. They're in town April 14th along with the usual suspects on the Taste of Chaos tour out at the hockey arena. What what. As well, for us Canadian kids, the band will be releasing an EP for the song along with some other stuff, namely two old songs called 'Flags Of Dawn' and 'Weight Of Glory' along with live versions of 'Under A Killing Moon', 'For Miles', 'Red Sky' and 'Of Dust And Nations'.
The album is out in stores Tuesday, but you can still go listen to the entire new offering from From First To Last over here.
Billy Talent, contrary to what a lot of people must think, haven't simply ceased to exist; the band's readying their sophomore album Billy Talent II(clever) for a June 27th release. 'Devil In A Midnight Mass' will be the name of the first radio single, and the band will take part in this summer's Warped Tour as well.
Aight, hardcore kids, hit the pit: brand-new stuff from Sick Of It All in the form of a new song called 'Take The Night Off' has surfaced on their myspace. Tear it up! I can't wait to see them again if they come back 'round these here parts.
