Dead Cross, the punk-encrusted crossover band featuring Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, etc..) alongside Dave Lombardo (Suicidal Tendencies, ex-Slayer), Justin Pearson (The Locust/Retox), and Michael Crain (Retox) have announced their first touring trek.
The North American run will coincide with the band’s self-titled début album due from Ipecac Recordings on August 4th. Opening support acts have yet to be named. Lombardo commented on the tour, saying:
“Everything about Dead Cross screams aggression. I have no idea what kind of chaos it will conjure on stage or in the audience… but I know it’s going to be a hell of a good time. Really looking forward to hitting the road with these guys.”
