THE ACACIA STRAIN recently completed a successful headlining tour across America with support from ALL SHALL PERISH, THE WARRIORS and SINCE THE FLOOD.
THE ACACIA STRAIN has posted a brand new song, "Skynet", on its MySpace page. The track comes off the group's new album, "Continent", which is scheduled for an August 19 release through Prosthetic Records.
"'Skynet' is a band favorite," vocalist Vincent Bennett says of the track. "We figured we should debut some of our 'different' tracks so when people pick up the album they are totally confused."
"Continent" is now available online in five different, exclusive packages here. The first 400 pre-orders will come with an autographed 11" x 17" poster featuring album artwork by Paul Romano (MASTODON, THE RED CHORD, TRIVIUM).
THE ACACIA STRAIN's fourth full-length release, "Continent" was produced by Zeuss (SHADOWS FALL, HATEBREED, GOD FORBID).
