Knocked Loose, The Acacia Strain and Harm’s Way Announce U.S. Tour

Upon seeing the tour lineup in the above headline — Sanction and Higher Power will open the trek — my initial reaction was surprise that Knocked Loose are headlining above The Acacia Strain. I had no idea that band is so popular — The Acacia Strain are, like, a pretty big band and stuff — and, frankly, I’m not sure I’ve listened to them yet. Am I missing out big time? Feel free to tell me I’m an idiot in the comments section for skipping over them last year (as if you needed an invitation to do so).

The Acacia Strain are always a hoot live, though, and I hear the same about Harm’s Way (though I’ve yet to see them). This is going to be quite the tour of big ol’ downtuned hardcore-inspired riffs.

Update: I just listened to Knocked Loose on Spotify. They totally had me hooked until the vocalist came in with that Jacob Bannon-style yelp thing. Not for me, although I concede the riffs are fucking sick! The moshpits at this tour are going to be absolutely fucknuts.
