The Acacia Strain Unveil New Song

Acacia Strain, The

Massachusetts' heavy hitters THE ACACIA STRAIN will post another track from the band's forthcoming album, ‘Continent,' online on Monday, August 4th along with the third in a series of TAS TV episodes on the band's MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/theacaciastrain). The previous episodes, as well as the track "Skynet" and a pre-production version of "Dr. Doom," are available there in the meantime. Due out August 19 through Prosthetic Records, pre-orders are be taken for the album now (http://www.prostheticrecords.com/TASsplash.html).

Upon completion of the band's current European tour, THE ACACIA STRAIN will play a handful of local record release shows before hitting the road again this fall as support to Unearth and Protest The Hero alongside Whitechapel and Gwen Stacy.

Featuring elaborate artwork again from Paul Romano (www.workhardened.com) and production by Zeuss (Hatebreed, Shadows Fall), ‘Continent' is THE ACACIA STRAIN's fourth full-length and is the follow-up to 2006's ‘The Dead Walk.'
