AS TALL AS LIONS Tour With MUTEMATH & MySpace Album Premiere

New York’s As Tall As Lions’ hard work has paid off in spades. Their heavy touring history and solid fanbase has helped land them the coveted direct support slot to MUTEMATH’s 35-date “Armistice Tour,” this Fall, starting September 22nd in Cincinnati, OH.

“This is a great tour, we have been waiting for one like this,” said ATAL frontman, Dan Nigro. “MUTEMATH writes intelligent songs and has a passionate audience, and we like to think that we do too.”

As Tall As Lions’ 3rd full-length, “You Can’t Take it with You” is in stores next Tuesday, August 18, but premieres today (through Saturday) on Myspace, www.myspace.com/astallaslions. In early reviews of the album, RCRDLBL said, “….an intimate side to Long Island-bred As Tall As Lions that is as timeless as it is timely.” While Alternative Press gave the record 4 stars, saying “…dizzyingly brilliant, and evidence of how tall these Lions Have grown.”

The album comes in 3 formats, a standard version, a deluxe version, that comes with a DVD featuring a 30 minute documentary about the making of YCTWY (it took well over a year) as well as live songs from the band’s sold out 2007 NYC performance. The vinyl album also comes as a 2-disc gatefold, with 4 bonus tracks.
