Act Of Defiance are streaming their new full-length debut, “Birth And The Burial“. This Friday, August 21st, has been scheduled as the official release date for the effort through Metal Blade. The group are comprised of former Megadeth members Chris Broderick & Shawn Drover, plus ex-Scar The Martyr singer Henry Derek and Shadows Fall‘s Matt Bachand. An October co-headlining tour with Allegeaon has also been announced, marking Act Of Defiance‘s first national tour. Broderick said of these latest happenings:
“We spent a lot of time and effort on Birth and the Burial to get it to sound as good as it possibly could, and we are not only excited for it’s release this Friday August 21st and the fact that everyone can stream it, but also to announce that we will be heading out on tour to support it in October!!! It’s one thing to get a CD to sound great, but now we have to live up to that sound live as well, and I know from talking to Shawn, Henry, and Matt that we are going to bring it!!! The tour will be with our Metal Blade record label mates Allegaeon. I urge you to pick up the CD and then come see us live to compare and contrast Hahahah.”
