POWER TRIP and SHEER MAG will team up this May/June for what is sure to be a wild and unforgettable run through North America — rounding out an impressive year for both bands. POWER TRIP's breakthrough album, "Nightmare Logic", earned an overwhelming amount of love across the board, ranging in praise from the New Yorker to a Pitchfork "Best New Music" to numerous Top 10 "Record Of The Year" lists. They were awarded the "Best Metal Album Of The Year" from Loudwire and song placement in the WWE. SHEER MAG's politically charged, debut full-length, "Need To Feel Your Love", also turned heads. Rolling Stone describes: "Explosive riffing and seemingly encyclopedic grasp of popular music styles — a typical SHEER MAG song crams a compendium of classic-rock, power-pop and garage-punk ideas." NPR claims their music is "not only a lesson in listening and learning from rock 'n' roll masters, but from our humanity." FURY and RED DEATH top off the bill. A special BLABBERMOUTH.NET presale will begin on Wednesday, Jnauary 10 at noon EST and end on Thursday, January 11 at noon EST.
