The U.S. leg of Beartooth’s “Pure Ecstasy Tour” was announced today (May 19th). It begins November 11th at Boston, Massachusetts’ MGM Music Hall at Fenway, and the 23-show trip runs across the country before wrapping up December 19th at the Hard Rock Live in Wheatland, California. Various artist pre-sales start going live by noon local today, while the general on-sale begins this Friday (May 22nd). You’ll find more info here, while the U.S. tour dates are down below. As previously reported, Beartooth’s upcoming Pure Ecstasy album will feature the recently delivered title track, which was co-written alongside Periphery guitarist Misha Mansoor and expanded upon with producer Jordan Fish (Poppy). The record also includes this year’s “Free” single, and features songwriting contributions from Skyler Accord (Issues, Twenty One Pilots, Bilmuri). Pure Ecstasy is out August 28th through Fearless Records. That said, you can pre-order an exclusive vinyl pressing on Half Blue/Half Purple with Black Splatter” (limited to 500 copies) right now in Revolver’s shop.

Beartooth are in the throes of “Pure Ecstasy.” Coming off the reflective “Free” single from earlier this year, Caleb Shomo and the rest of the metalcore act have teamed with Periphery guitarist Misha Mansoor and producer Jordan Fish to premiere a track called “Pure Ecstasy,” which previews an upcoming full-length of the same name. The intro delivers down-and-dirty low-string chugs as Shomo intensely forewarns of an upcoming explosive personal epiphany (“Waking the demon I was destined to be / Begging the reaper, ‘Won’t you set me free?’”). The song sports a mix of Eighties-grade whammy squeals, skies-cresting chorus melodies and assertive screams from Shomo (“I’m not the battle, I’m the fucking war”). Per a press release, this points to how the new album apparently traffics in “both the chaos and clarity of hard-won personal growth.” “Song one is always a crucial part of an album to me. It’s gotta lock you into the vibe out of the gate,” Shomo explains in a statement. “‘Pure Ecstasy’ was birthed in a studio with Misha Mansoor, ridiculous loudspeakers, and the dumbest heaviest chugs we could chug. Once it was brought home and expanded on with Jordan Fish, there was no question it was the album opener. Play loud and kick ass.” You can set Shomo’s latest anthem free by giving the video — which finds him digging a lil’ napping ditch as the rest of Beartooth chug through the tune — up above. The upcoming, 11-song Pure Ecstasy also features recent single “Free.” In addition to work with Mansoor and Fish, the album includes songwriting contributions from Skyler Accord (Issues, Twenty One Pilots, Bilmuri), while Shomo is joined on record by bassist Oshie Bichar, guitarists Zach Huston and Will Deely, and drummer Connor Denis. The album is Beartooth’s first full-length release for Fearless Records. It’ll be released in full on August 28th, though you can pre-order an exclusive pressing on Half Blue/Half Purple with Black Splatter” vinyl (limited to 500 copies) in Revolver’s shop.
