Commented drummer Garry Naples, “We are very excited about getting out on the road next month! We will be hitting some familiar places in the Midwest as well as conquering new ground on the East Coast. Right now we’re focusing on writing for the new album, as well as rehearsing the older material for the tour. We’re hoping to play a couple new tracks on the tour, so that everyone can get a taste of what the new record will sound like. The shows are going to be killer, so we hope to see everyone out to jam and hang out!”

The tour will be part of AFM Entertainment’s “The Indie Invasion Tour” and will also feature THE 2ND SYSTEM from Saginaw, Michigan.

KASTASYDE recently released three new songs which can be heard here. The tracks “True Agony,” “Beyond Repair,” and “Trainwreck” were recorded this past summer at Studio One in Racine, WI with engineer Chris Djuric. Following the tour, the band plans to return to the studio to record their second full-length album.

KASTASYDE’s debut full-length, 2005’s “Hundred Hollow Words” can be purchased online at Open Grave Records.
