Having made a name for themselves as one of the hottest bands on the U.K. metal scene, London's metal monsters THE DEFILED are proud to announce they’ll make their way across the Atlantic this summer for their maiden American tour opening for the headlining rock industrialist Davey Suicide with experimental hardcore band The Bunny The Bear as direct support. The “Hide Your Morals” tour will launch on July 19th in Tempe, Arizona and mayhem is guaranteed to ensue when the tour closes at The Whisky in Hollywood on August 13th.

"We are over the fucking moon to announce we are going to be embarking on our first ever U.S. tour with Davey Suicide," proclaims the band. "After years of sweating it out in the U.K. and Europe, we can't wait to be able to take what we do to the States."

Enjoy some British humor with the band’s video announcement of the tour posted on their official YouTube channel: http://youtu.be/Uk8Lrhc678c

THE DEFILED come armed with an irrepressible combination of punishingly heavy riffs & melodies that has won them an army of fans and high praise from the U.K. press plus a Metal Hammer Golden God Award for "Best British Newcomer."

Due out in North America on August 6th, THE DEFILED’s second studio release, Daggers, was recorded at Audio Hammer Studios in Florida with producer/engineer Jason Suecof (Death Angel, Job For A Cowboy, Atheist, Charred Walls Of The Damned). Album artwork was designed by Scott Chalmers.
