After recently completing a North American tour with label-mates Allegaeon, plus some shows with Killswitch Engage just before the New Year, ACT OF DEFIANCE is ready to return to the road for another headlining trek!
Drummer Shawn Drover comments: “After just getting home from a great co-headlining tour with our good friends in Allegaeon, we are super stoked to get right back on the road for round two, with our 2016 North American tour. There were lots of cities that we were unable to play on our first go around, so this time we wanted to hit as many places as we can to keep promoting Birth And The Burial shortly after the holiday season. We really want to tour as much as possible for this record and bring 100% true heavy metal to as many people as possible. See you on the road!”

ACT OF DEFIANCE — featuring Chris Broderick (ex-Megadeth), Shawn Drover (ex-Megadeth), Matt Bachand (Shadows Fall/Times Of Grace) and Henry Derek (Scar The Martyr) — will be touring in support of their recently released album, Birth And The Burial. In a time of endless sub-genre classifications, ACT OF DEFIANCE‘s debut delivers, “perfectly produced, super slick slice of savage, technical modern thrash,” (Terrorizer), that promises to, “destroy your eardrums, as they are uncompromising and unrelenting metal at its very best,” (Powerplay).
