Spineshank are starting to pack as they’ve got a summer tour coming just around the corner. The group will be playing their first headlining dates in over six years as they lead up to the release of their return album, ‘Anger Denial Acceptance.’

The group announced a batch of shows that will kick off June 14 at Las Vegas’ Bunkhouse and continue into early August with a tour finale at West Hollywood’s famous Whisky-A-Go-Go. Their new disc arrives June 19, just five days after the tour starts, so the band will hit the ground running with new music without having to worry about holding onto material.

The Grammy-nominated rockers split in 2004, just as they were receiving their biggest accolades, but decided to get back together in 2008. They’ve spent the last several years getting their live chops in order and making sure that their return album was the best it could be.

Guitarist Mike Sarkysian says, “This is by far the proudest I have ever been of any Spineshank record. ‘Anger Denial Acceptance’ is the darkest and most honest this band has ever been.” The lead single, ‘Nothing Left For Me,’ recently premiered exclusively at Loudwire.
