Animals as Leaders, After the Burial, Navene K and Chon Announce Spring Tour (Plus: New AAL Album Soon?)
While Axl and I were kicking back at the beach over the winter break Animals as Leaders went and announced a tour for the spring. Didn’t they know to wait until the two most important bloggers in the world were available so we could give them press on it?? Sheesh.
Seems as if they knew what was up all along, though, because they just added a whole bunch more dates to the tour, giving us reason to post about it again. Because we are the only two people who matter, and every band should plan everything around us! Clearly.
After the Burial, ex-AAL drummer Navene K (playing awesome electronic music on the drums — check it), and MetalSucks unsigned faves Chon will play support. And, once again, since we’re the only people that matter, we’ll get the chance to see this fantastic lineup both in NYC and at SXSW! Gee, thanks for the consideration, guys!
It’s also rumored that AAL will release a new album during the tour, with a tease hinting as much on the admat above. Stay tuned on that. Dates below:
