Massachusetts metal band The Acacia Strain have announced their Summer 2026 headline run, dubbed “You Are Safe From The Dead Walk Here”, celebrating both the 20th anniversary of The Dead Walk and their latest album You Are Safe From God Here.
Support on the trek will come from The Callous Daoboys, Fromjoy, and Mask.
The tour kicks off June 4 in Harrisburg, PA and runs through June 20 in Des Moines, IA, hitting a string of intimate venues along the way. Tickets go on sale Friday, April 17 at 10am local time.
Vocalist Vincent Bennett comments:
“THE DEAD WALK IS 20. YOU ARE SAFE FROM GOD HERE ISN’T EVEN A YEAR OLD YET. NO WAY WE ARE PLAYING EVERY SONG OFF A 20-YEAR-OLD RECORD WHEN WE JUST CAME OUT WITH A NEW ONE. THE BEST WE CAN DO IS LIKE 5 OR 6 SONGS — TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT. THE DEAD WALK SONGS. YOU ARE SAFE FROM GOD HERE SONGS. CALLOUS DAOBOYS SONGS — DURING THEIR SET ONLY. PLUS FROMJOY AND MASK ARE GOING TO BE THERE. INTIMATE VENUES. LIMITED BARRICADES. COME COMPLAIN ABOUT HOW WE DIDN’T PLAY THE ONE SONG YOU REALLY WANTED TO HEAR.”
Following their 2023 dual release Step Into The Light and Failure Will Follow, the band’s latest full-length You Are Safe From God Here continues to push their sonic boundaries while maintaining the crushing intensity that defines their sound.
