As I Lay Dying On MTV2 July 9th

As I Lay Dying's "Shadows Are Security" arrived on the Billboard charts at #1 independent record in the country and # 35 on the Top 200. And now in week two over 47,000 copies sold first two weeks alone were tallied, that is Metal Blade Record's biggest number and highest charting position since the Goo Goo Dolls (the Goo Goo Dolls was a joint effort with Warner Brothers - so this is Metal Blade's biggest solo release ever.)

On June 24th As I Lay Dying whipped their home town of San Diego into a frenzy at their CD release show at Soma in support of "Shadows Are Security". Next, AILD will be playing the upcoming Christian Cornerstone festival on July 1st in Marietta Illinois. AILD are set to bring the mayhem to the masses this summer as they co-headline the second stage on Ozzfest 2005. The band also has several off-fest dates with Killswitch Engage and Soilwork. Below is their complete touring schedule.

MTV2's Headbangers Ball plays host to As I Lay Dying who are interviewed to be aired on Saturday, July 9th. The San Diego based quartet will talk up their recent success, their new release and summer plans with host Jamey Jasta (Hatebreed).
