I dont know why it says "North America" when it's only US dates so far, unless the TBA dates are in Canada. No Vancouver makes me a sad panda. I can't believe I showed up too late to see them when they opened for Mastodon/Dethklok, argh.

The EP will be out this year, I believe Jake said, while the new album probably won't hit until next year some time.
