ALEXISONFIRE have released a music video for their song “Familiar Drugs” and have also announced the support acts for their upcoming shows in London, Toronto, New York and Los Angeles.
The featured support acts for the tour are Chastity and Child’s Pose in London (UK), Angel Du$t and Drug Church in New York City, Drug Church and The Dirty Nil in Los Angeles. In Toronto, Glassjaw andThe Dirty Nil will perform the first night at Budweiser Stage, with Quicksand and Moneen filling in as support for the 2nd night. Below are a few words George Pettit had to say about each band supporting their show:
Angel Du$t – Someone once described Angel Du$t to me as, “if a hardcore band did the “There’s Something About Mary” soundtrack”. In other words, totally sick.
Chastity – The best thing to come out of the Durham region since…since…..hmmmm…
Child’s Pose– Awesome new post-punk band from the UK. Came highly recommended by Jonah Falco of Fucked Up.
Drug Church – Never met these guys but I love their music and I’m more than happy that bands that are much cooler than AOF are willing to play shows with us.
Glassjaw: AOF opened for them at the Opera House in Toronto in 2002. It took a couple years but we are returning the favour.
Moneen: Moneen is the Sigfried to Alexisonfire’s Roy…which one got attacked by the tiger? That one is Moneen.
Quicksand: Heroes of ours from the days when they played interesting music on late night television. Post hardcore legend in the flesh.
The Dirty Nil – Luke once brought me bacon back when he worked at a butcher…bacon bribes is a good way to get an opening slot on an AOF show. True story.
