The Sword has extended its “Warp Riders” 15th anniversary tour, adding a new leg that sees the trek now span the United States
“This is probably the only chance people will have to see us perform the entire album, so don’t miss out!” vocalist/guitarist JD Cronise said.
Tickets for the new dates go on sale at 10 a.m. local time Friday, July 11, via TheSwordOfficial.com. Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol support son all dates, with Pink Fuzz appearing from Aug. 17 to Oct. 11 and Moon Destroys joining from Oct. 13 to 26.
Upon its 2010 release, the 10-track “Warp Riders” was praised by the BBC for its “level of fantastical grandeur … on par with the bands who built the power metal subgenre,” while The Quietus called it “brilliant,” and Pitchfork dubbed it “Camaro-ready riff-rock.”
