Protest the Hero's fourth album Volition turned 10 last October, and the band will now honour the milestone with a North American anniversary tour.

Split over two legs, the band's anniversary run will see them play Volition in its entirety. An August leg will see support from '68 and Greyhaven, while the second October leg will Kaonashi join the run in place of Greyhaven.

Three Canadian shows come at the end of the tour's second leg, bringing Protest the Hero to Montreal, Toronto and London.

Find Protest the Hero's complete tour itinerary below. Further ticketing and VIP package details can be found via the band's official website.

Winner of the 2014 JUNO Award for Metal/Hard Music Album of the Year, Volition was notably crowd-funded by Protest the Hero, and also marks the band's first LP to not feature its original lineup. Lamb of God drummer Chris Adler was brought in to record following the departure of co-founding drummer Moe Carlson.

Volition is also PTH's last full-length with original bassist Arif Mirabdolbaghi. Other guests on the LP include American guitarist Ron Jarzombek, Propagandhi's Todd Kowalski and singer-songwriter Jadea Kelly.
