Leprous headlining North American tour this fall with Earthside, Binary code, Dissona

Norwegian prog metallers Leprous are getting ready to lead a North American tour with Earthside, Binary Code, and Dissona starting at the end of September. The band, made famous by backing Ihsahn’s live shows (which they no longer do), have been a favorite in the progressive scene for some time now. And though their music seems to be lacking some of its edge these days I think it’s safe to say they’re still a well-respected act with a helluva lot of awesome tracks notched in their belts. This ought to make for a good time.

With supporting acts like the ones listed, this is a progressive fan’s wet dream — unless you’re in Mexico City, where the people get Leprous all to themselves. Check out the tour dates below and get yourself ready to ride the waves of prog all the way to wherever the hell they end up crashing.
