Between the Buried and Me has announced a new 31-date U.S. tour to support their latest album, The Blue Nowhere. Anchored by bass great Dan Briggs, the progressive metal pioneers will hit the road this spring with an equally adventurous lineup.

Joining them are fellow prog-metal innovators Imperial Triumphant (featuring bassist Steve Blanco), Fallujah, Thank You Scientist (with bassist Sam Smith), and The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die (featuring bassist Josh Cyr).

“I’m pumped to get back out on the road, especially with such phenomenal bands,” says BTBAM vocalist Tommy Rogers. “Intensity in its full spectrum. It’s going to be a great night of music, and what better time than now to celebrate it with your friends? Friends rule. Shows rule. This tour rules. See you out there.”

The tour kicks off May 15th in Richmond, Virginia at The National. They’ll head up the East Coast and work their way across the country as far as California before doubling back to finish up June 20th in Winston Salem, North Carolina.

For bass fans, this run is another chance to witness Dan Briggs’ jaw-dropping technique in person. His intricate, athletic lines are a core part of the band’s sonic identity. Check out his relentless lines on “God Terror,” filmed live in Denver last year.
