Septicflesh have added four headline shows to the North American tour they are already on. The dates are 29 October at the Old Town Theatre in Old Town, Maine, 6 November at the Skylark in Rock Island, Illinois, 17 November at the McDonald Theatre in Eugene, Oregon, and 18 November at Ace Of Spades in Sacramento.
All four land on off days in the Wrath Across North America run, where the Greeks are supporting Arch Enemy and The Black Dahlia Murder, with Crypta and Thrown Into Exile also on the bill. A support band plays forty minutes; a headline night is a full set with the orchestration and the choirs the records are built on, which is a different thing to sell.
The choice of towns is the practical part. Old Town, Rock Island and Eugene are not stops the big co-headline tour makes, so the band reaches rooms the main run skips and gets paid on nights it would otherwise spend in a van.
The tour continues without the band's lead guitarist, who stayed home at the start of it.
