Articles by "Animals As Leaders"


Periphery and Animals As Leaders team up for what is sure to be one of the year’s most talked about tours, launching a North American trek, dubbed The Convergence Tour, on Oct. 31. Support will be coming from Car Bomb opens Oct. 31 – Nov. 15 while Astronoid supports Nov. 17 to Dec. 2.

“This tour is a long time coming,” said Animals As Leaders’ guitar player Tosin Abasi. “Beyond being some of our favorite musicians, the guys in Periphery are some of our favorite people! Our careers share common roots and at times, common members. We can’t wait to bring this show to you all.”

“We are incredibly excited to hit the road with our good friends in Animals as Leaders this fall,” adds Periphery guitar player Mark Holcomb. “While we've done some short runs and one-off shows with AAL over the years, the idea to do a full-scale, co-headlining tour of North America has been something both our camps have discussed for the better part of seven years. Unfortunately, we were never able to line things up. Until now. We were also able to snag two amazing bands for portions of this tour as well, Car Bomb for the first half and Astronoid for the second half. ”

Between the Buried and Me are excited to announce the "Coma Ecliptic" tour, named after their forthcoming new album, for July through August in North America. The tour features support from Animals As Leaders along with openers The Contortionist. The tour will be the band's first official set of dates following the release of "Coma Ecliptic" on July 10th.

"Coma Ecliptic" is the title of Between the Buried and Me's seventh full length album, which is currently scheduled for release on July 10th, 2015 via Metal Blade Records worldwide. Once again, the band has returned with an ambitious concept album. This time, the story follows the wanderings of an unidentified man, stuck in a coma, as he journeys through his past lives. Each song is its own episode in a modern day, sort of The Twilight Zone-esque fashion. The unidentified man enters each world and is offered a choice: stay, or move on to the next in search of something better, something more "perfect." Vocalist / keyboardist Tommy Rogers spoke with Revolver Magazine for their upcoming issue, which will be on newsstands everywhere March 31st. Pick up the magazine for an exclusive first look at the album's recording process and concept. New music and pre-orders bundles will be launched on April 3rd, 2015.

The launch of SoundCheck Hollywood located on the very infamous Sunset Strip next to the most ranked venues known Whisky A Go-Go, Roxy, Key Club, and Viper Room aside from the House Of Blues up the street. This venue goes back to the time when Tower Records roamed these city streets. Now that, time of age is behind us SoundCheck Hollywood is serving a purpose to unite musicians and music fans together as one. SoundCheck Hollywood will feature everything from Vinyl to CDs, DVDs, from all artists spanning across these past decades. Having also available very limitied edition memorbilla that will cover its 4 walled outlet. This is the place to be when it comes to all things music.

Though all of this sounds quite grand it continues to offer even more. It offers the fans a one of a kind meet and greet opporunity with the bands that make the music happen. By experiecing a "backstage" atmosphere rather than having your typical 5 second rule. SoundCheck Hollywood explains "We want to create an intimate environment that no other store has ever offered fans when they go to meet their favorite artists at a signing. SoundCheck's backstage will be far different from your typical "move-it-along" setting, i.e. having a line of people looking over your shoulder while you are sharing your coveted moment with the band you came to meet" Avildsen added. All the brand new releases that normally drop on Tuesdays will be dropping 9PM the night before. "If a kid can buy it on iTunes on the east coast at that moment, then people in California should be able to buy the physical version in person too."

To top it off, whether you are just browsing the store or waiting in line to get backstage at SoundCheck Hollywood, fans can enjoy the two fully restored, timeless arcade pinball machines found inside: GUNS N ROSES and WWF ROYAL RUMBLE, which are free to customers.
