Edmonton’s Fall Of Earth will be hitting the road for their first coast-to-coast Canada Tour of 2023 and the fourth of the year since touring across Eastern Canada earlier this year. Venturing across the country in support of their sophomore album “From the Ashes” released this past April, this forthcoming tour also welcomes rhythm guitarist Matthew Lindholm to enhance the band’s live sound and new bassist Myles Packer to replace Aaron Winklmeier who is on the band’s latest album.
The “Road To Purgatory Tour” will kick off on September 8th in Peace River, AB, and head towards British Columbia, and then go East pushing forward to Halifax, NS to trek across 9 Canadian Provinces for two months of 40-plus performances that will head back West and wrap up in Saskatoon, SK on November 18th (dates listed below).
Fall of Earth has embraced labeling itself as “Hybrid Metal,” as its sound is a contagious mélange of genres, that is continuously being refined. The primary elements come from progressive, death, and thrash, and over time, they find a lot of their tracks becoming longer, more epic, and more dynamic becoming more melodic and groove-oriented, as well as utilizing a healthy balance between Heavy sections and clean sections. The latest iteration of the Canadian quartet can be experienced with their recently released sophomore album “From the Ashes.”
Since writing this second album, Fall OF Earth says that they have a better understanding of what they want their music to become and where to steer the direction of their future works. All across the board, their lyrics come from a very personal place and hold a serious connotation.
Creative, unpredictable, and melodic, with a wide variety of influences, Fall Of Earth offers a little bit of something for everyone.
“From The Ashes” was released on April 21, 2023, and is available here: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/fallofearth/from-the-ashes
