After The Burial explains decision to resume touring

Last night, The Faceless announced that they'd be touring North America this fall with After The Burial, Rings of Saturn, and Toothgrinder. Notably, this will be After The Burial's first shows since the tragic passing of guitar player Justin Lowe this past summer. As such, when the new tour was announced, After The Burial issued the following statement:
"As you know, we canceled our appearance on the Summer Slaughter tour to spend time with friends and family in an effort to rebuild after the loss of our brother. "Everybody deals with tragedy in their own way, and at their own pace. Each way is unique to that person, but the common goal that all people share is to get back to living a normal life. A normal life to us is being on the road, meeting our fans, and sharing our music with the world. "We're excited to announce this upcoming tour with The Faceless. It represents a huge step forward emotionally for us in the band. We still have the drive and motivation to deliver music to you guys, and we want you all to be able to look to us for strength. "We wouldn't be here without your support, and we want to give it back to you. We love you all, and we'll see you on the road."

Could have just said... We're broke. The extra three dollars a day we can make because our guitarist died will help us get better Subway subs on tour.... moving up to the $8 sub menu.

Sankus Watch out bruh, you're going to get the crusty c|_|m shirt, bridge thrown treatment from them next with an attitude like that... You and lightbro should just fight each other over who's the toughest crew member. Ps. No one posting on this site is coming to your shows.

DISABLE THE COMMENTS. THINK OF THE MERCH GIRLS.

anonymous 9/29/2015 11:45:28 AM

Jason Richardson should make up for ever joining chelsea grin by joining After The Burial

anonymous 9/29/2015 11:56:42 AM

I actually agree with Richardson joining ATB and hope that happens! Its time for the band to continue on!

anonymous 9/29/2015 12:02:53 PM

If Jason Richardson does play this season he wants to play for a contender, not ATB.

anonymous 9/29/2015 12:07:36 PM

I'm just here to fight the sound guys.

anonymous 9/29/2015 12:32:49 PM

Disable comments please. Think of the soundgays.

anonymous 9/29/2015 12:35:08 PM

Why is Sankus' dumb ass commenting on here? Doesn't he have some really cool prog metal band to suck up to? fcker looks like a big toddler.

anonymous 9/29/2015 1:31:02 PM

There's an investigation in progress as we speak, let's think about the families please.

anonymous 9/29/2015 3:11:53 PM

All they had to say is $ > Everything.

anonymous 9/29/2015 3:40:48 PM

Sound guys: defenders of a band's honor

anonymous 9/29/2015 6:13:53 PM

Lighting/Merch guy will be singing the Russell Crowe/South Park "Fighting 'round the world" song at each show while bashing all the Justing Lowe haters

anonymous 9/29/2015 8:41:28 PM

Well that was a quick recovery period

anonymous 9/30/2015 6:42:10 AM

Why sound guys coming to everyone's rescue lol

anonymous 9/30/2015 1:05:09 PM

They got away with it. Probably saw the money they could milk from the t-shirt sales.

anonymous 9/30/2015 7:17:58 PM
