Norma Jean is taking its blistering metalcore racket on the road and they’re bringing some friends along for the ride. The Explosions II Tour is the band’s first headlining run in over a year and will feature support from fellow metal acts, Of Legends and Impending Doom, as well as melodic hardcore outfit, Stick to Your Guns, on all but five of the dates. The four-week trek will kick off on February 24th in Dallas, head towards the West Coast, cut back across the Midwest, and back down the East Coast through Richmond and Charlotte before culminating in a hometown throwdown at the Masquerade on March 25th. Norma Jean is touring in support of Meridional, the band’s fifth full-length effort and their first for the New York-based label, Razor & Tie Records. You can check out all the dates below.
