Texas stoner metal merchants the Sword have spent the last couple of months rolling out joints from their High County album, and with it finally set to arrive this week (August 21) on Razor & Tie, the group have detailed an extensive late-fall tour of North America.
The outing runs from the first half of October through to the second half of December. It's split into two distinct legs: the first couple of months are with Kadavar and All Them Witches; then, after a couple of weeks off, the Sword will hit the road for another month with Royal Thunder.
Most of the shows are in the U.S., but there are also Canadian stops in Vancouver on October 28 and Toronto on December 6. See the full schedule below.
Meanwhile, those who order High Country from the Sword's website before August 28 will be entered to win one of ten custom beer steins, one of 10 bikes, or one of 30 signed vinyl test pressings. Don't forget, of course, that High County can be purchased in a lavish weed-themed package.
