PARKWAY DRIVE
DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYES VINYL RE-ISSUE FOR THE ANNIVERSARY!
EU/UK TOUR IN JUNE & JULY
ALBUM DARKER STILL AVAILABLE VIA EPITAPH RECORDS
The Australian metal giants PARKWAY DRIVE - Winston McCall (vocals), Luke Kilpatrick (guitar), Jeff Ling (guitar), Jia O'Connor (bass), and Ben Gordon (drums) - are celebrating their 20th anniversary as a band this year.
As part of the celebrations, "Don't Close Your Eyes" will be available on vinyl for the very first time. This expanded version of the band's 2004 debut includes the original eight tracks along with bonus tracks from their split album with I Killed The Prom Queen and the compilation albums What We've Built and True Til Death, Volume 1. It will be available on August 18. You can pre-order it here.
"20 years is a milestone in any career," says McCall. "The journey that has brought us to this moment has been, to put it mildly, insane. We wanted to celebrate this time with a tour that represents who we are and where we come from. For the first time on North American soil, we are bringing the full Parkway Drive live production, and as if that weren't enough, we also have an Australian lineup with us. No compromises, no surrender. This is who we are - The Monsters Of Oz. Come and celebrate with us and tear everything down."
