Better Lovers launched their headlining North American tour last night, April 18th, at the Old National Centre in Indianapolis, IN. The supergroup, who are comprised of current and former members of Every Time I Die, The Dillinger Escape Plan and Fit For An Autopsy, are currently sitting on a wealth of new material, having been in the studio earlier this year.
With word on their expected debut album still pending, the band peppered last night’s setlist with a number of tracks they’ve yet to release. According to those in attendance, the show ran as follows:
“Become So Small”
“Sacrificial Participant”
“Edward”
“Two Alive Amongst The Dead”
“Croc”
“The Flowering”
“Slay” (live debut)
“Hey Chef” (live debut)
“God Mad Me An Animal”
“30 Under 13”
Fan-filmed footage of one of those new offerings has been uploaded below. You have ample chances to catch the band out over the next few months, see below for their touring plans.
