There was a controversy brewing with the voting for the opening slot band of Summer Slaughter. Ultimately, that distinction went to Rings Of Saturn, who won by less than 1% of the vote. Apparently, the voting was left open past the deadline and during that time, Thy Art Is Murder squeezed ahead.
To make amends, the tour has announced both bands will be on the bill.
That's pretty great. They will be joining Dillinger Escape Plan, Periphery, Norma Jean, Animals As Leaders and all the other bands in the flyer above.
Additionally, two dates have been announced so far for the tour:
7/20 – Los Angeles, CA – House of Blues Sunset Strip
8/07 – New York, NY – Best Buy Theater
08/09 Montreal, QC – Metropolis
No word on when tickets go on sale or additional dates but we will keep you posted.
