Los Angeles based Malus Clothing has announced their second annual national tour! The Be Shred or Be Dead Tour will feature co-headlining efforts by Sea of Treachery and Suffokate with direct support from Blindwitness. We Are The End, And Hell Followed With, and Destruction of a Rose will also be featured on select dates on the tour. "We worked closely with The Love As Arson Agency to determine who was available and what bands we felt showed the most promise in the near future." Malus owner Jason Mageau commented. "We wanted to keep it pretty metal but felt this lineup could attract a diverse crowd. We decided on some pretty heavy bands, and some that have a few sing alongs. It should be a fun show." Daniel DeFonce from The Love As Arson Agency commented. "I am very happy that Jason Mageau came to me to put this tour together. We went through a lot of bands to find the right ones for this tour. Jason & his company Malus Clothing is putting a lot of promotion behind this tour and It's an honor to actually be apart of this with him".

Malus Clothing will have some limited edition shirts available with Destruction of a Rose when the band jumps on the tour 11/8. "We hope for kids to just have a good time, pick up a shirt or two from the road or back on our website at www.buymalus.com as well as buy all the band merch they can afford. We want everyone to know that Malus is not only supportive of the music scene but will continue to do what we can to raise awareness for all of the bands we support." Mageau remarked.

The first ever Malus Clothing tour featured Before Their Eyes, Eyes Set To Kill, Love Hate Hero, I See Stars, Ice Nine Kills, and Oceana. The company has also sponsored tours for Escape The Fate, As I Lay Dying and others. The tour dates are posted below.

Standby Records is proud to announce the addition of Chicago, IL’s JUST LEFT to our ever-growing roster. The band has making noise locally for a while now, including playing shows with Fall Out Boy, All Time Low, and many others.

Drummer Bobby Weglarz had the following to say about signing with Standby: “We just feel like we have finally gotten so far and that all that hard work and dedication has paid off. Thanks to everyone who believed in us and has supported us, and after all this time, we still have a long way to go and a lot of hard work ahead of us. What were mostly excited about with signing to Standby is the fact that we can say our album is ‘in stores now!’ and also that we are going to get the chance to tour with some national acts that we really look up too.”

The band’s Standby Records debut ‘Think Fast’, which was produced by Ace Enders (The Early November) and Chris Badami (The Starting Line) will be available in stores and online October 27th.
