Rosetta Announces New Album, Tour Dates

Philadelphia avant-metal band Rosetta will embark on a headline North American tour this fall in support of forthcoming 6th studio album, "Utopioid," which is due out on September 1st. The band will be supported by Tucson sludge act North, and Rosetta also had this to say:

“We're thrilled to play shows throughout the Western US and Canada this Fall, in support of our new album Utopioid. And we're especially proud to be joined by our longtime friends in North, who we've had the pleasure to tour with several times over the years.

"Even beyond our brotherly kinship, they bring a level of inspired creativity to the stage night after night. For our part, we're crafting a setlist pulling from the new album as well as many of our past releases, and look forward to connecting with old and new friends along the way. Can't wait to see you out there."

Guitarist / vocalist Eric Jernigan further states: "Composing 'Utopioid,' we were wholly devoted to realizing the concept, disciplining ourselves to let the narrative shape all parts of the album -- not just the lyrics, but everything down to the subtle ways rhythm or effects could alter the mood. We quickly let go of the imperative to write for live performance; although we will play many of these songs live, we felt freedom to explore the furthest reaches of our skills and imaginations."
