First, they were black and blue. Now, they're back in Black.
To cap off a tremendous 2005 that has also seen the group tour alongside Motorhead, Corrosion of Conformity, Faster Pussycat, Zeke, Life of Agony and Scum of the Earth, the Syracuse-based hard rock quintet BRAND NEW SIN have secured the direct support slot on the upcoming Black Label Society tour, which kicks off in St. Petersburg, Fla. on Oct. 14. This five-week, Guitar World-sponsored, major market trek will coincide with the release of the video for new single “Days Are Numbered,” shot by acclaimed director Dale Resteghini (Shadows Fall, Hatebreed).
BRAND NEW SIN – who recently headlined the Syracruise bike rally (“Central New York's largest annual motorcycle event”) in their hometown – are no strangers to Black Label Society, who spent the summer playing to thousands of fans on the main stage of Ozzfest. The group played nine shows with Zakk Wylde's band of SDMF's three years ago in support of their self-titled debut, including an infamous Detroit gig at which Black Label Society filmed its first live DVD – a show at which the crowd depleted the venue's entire beer supply.
“We're happy to be going back out with Black Label,” says BRAND NEW SIN front man Joe Altier. “The last time around, we were out for only two weeks. Our bands fit perfectly together, and this is a great chance for us to take it around the entire country.”
BRAND NEW SIN continue to tour in support of their critically acclaimed second album, Recipe For Disaster.
