Having announced their biggest UK tour to date earlier this year, UK sensation ASKING ALEXANDRIA have revealed the first two bands to join them on their January run.
The first special guests come in the form of Pennsylvania’s MOTIONLESS IN WHITE. The Kerrang! Magazine “Best International Newcomer” nominees set the UK ablaze last year supporting blessthefall, and boast their own sold-out headline tour of the UK which kicks off next week. Dark, menacing and frighteningly tight, the slick sick six-piece promise a hard-hitting show that will not disappoint the AA army of fans. Says frontman Chris Motionless:
 “We’re thrilled to be kicking off 2013 back in Europe with our friends in Asking Alexandria. It will be great to follow up our sold out UK headline tour playing to both old and new fans in such big venues. The European crowds were amazing to play for on our first time through last year, so we’re really fucking excited to finally come back around on such a great tour and play some new songs from Infamous for all of you.”
Opening the shows will be Parisian deathcore dealers BETRAYING THE MARTYRS, who state: “It has been a huge summer for us in the states this year being part of the infamous Rockstar Mayhem Fest, and of course The Allstars Tour, and we have came home not only with insane memories, but with experience, motivation and the urge to take each show to it’s very limits! We couldn’t be happier to part of this tour, with our great friends in Asking Alexandria, and to be starting 2013 in the best possible way! See you all out there!”
A very special main support is yet to be announced and will be revealed in the coming weeks.
