BOUNDARIES have announced the "Yearning: the unbeautiful after" North American tour, their first headlining run in support of their new album of the same name, which came out recently through Sumerian Records. The 26-date tour opens on February 20, 2027 at New York's Irving Plaza and wraps up on March 27 at The Palladium in Worcester, Massachusetts. SPITE, THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS and YOUR SPIRIT DIES are in support.
An artist pre-sale starts tomorrow, November 11, at 10 a.m. local time with the code "Yearning". General tickets go on sale on Friday, November 13, at 10 a.m. local time via the band's website.
"Yearning: the unbeautiful after" is a 14-track record and the Connecticut band's first for Sumerian. Vocalist Matthew McDougal says the aim was to be uncompromising and plant a flag: in his view, heavy music keeps losing its teeth, and the genre is supposed to feel threatening and have an edge, so the band went for urgency. Speaking to Revolver, he added that the plan was to spend less time in the middle ground and more time pushing toward the extremes.
BOUNDARIES are Matthew McDougal (vocals), Cory Emond (guitar), Cody Delvecchio (guitar), Nathan Calcagno (bass, vocals) and Tim Sullivan (drums, vocals). Their catalog also includes "Hartford County Misery" (2017), "Your Receding Warmth" (2020), "Burying Brightness" (2022) and "Death Is Little More" (2024), and they recently finished a US run with KNOCKED LOOSE.
