The metal tour of the year is here!
It’s the 20th anniversary of heavy metal titans Bullet For My Valentine’s ground-breaking album, “The Poison”, as well as Trivium’s massive album, “Ascendancy”, and they’ll be hitting the road for a co-headlining tour that will see them perform both albums in their entirety!
And you’ve guessed it, Pittsburgh, you better buckle up, because they’ll be heading your way! That’s right – Bullet For My Valentine and Trivium are coming to Stage AE on 29 April 2025 with The Poisoned Ascendancy Tour, supported by August Burns Red and Bleed From Within!
The 26-city tour celebrating the power of music is set to kick off in March in Vancouver, making stops all across North America before wrapping up in Raleigh in May. Tickets are priced to go from only $73 and are already flying faster than fingers over a fretboard, so hit that button now to get yours; otherwise, you’ll end up wanting to kick yourself for missing out!
That thing of bodies flying everywhere and each song greeted by a roar of appreciation that makes your hair stand on end? That’s Bullet For My Valentine live in concert.
Bullet For My Valentine is a mainstay in metal. The album that started it all, “The Poison”, released in 2005, propelled them to new heights around the globe, entering the Billboard 200 chart at number 128, achieving gold status. Their unique blend of muscular riffs, post-hardcore vocals, and ability to bring melody and light to an often dark genre, made them a favorite among metalheads globally, pushing their record sales to over 3,5 million albums.
Since "The Poison", Bullet For My Valentine has consistently gone from strength to strength, with their accolade shelf carrying the weight of 6 Kerrang! Awards, 2 Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards, and one Welsh Music Award.
Trivium has been hailed as “quite one of the best bands on modern metal” by Metal Hammer. It’s thundering tracks raining down on fans, thrilling dual guitar passages, pummeling drums, melodic breaks, and vicious throat screams. It is both the calm and the storm, and it is earth-shakingly amazing.
Trivium’s second album, “Ascendancy”, entered the Billboard 200 at number 151 and the Top Heatseekers chart at number 4, achieving gold status and catapulting them onto the world stage. Trivium released a total of 10 studio albums to date and received multiple accolades, including a Grammy Award nomination, a Kerrang! Award, a Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award, a Metal Storm Award, and three World Music Awards.
Metalcore icons August Burns Red, that brought the metal community hits such as “Composure”, “White Washed”, and “Meddler”, will be supporting the two metal titan bands on tour, together with the Scottish heavy metal band Bleed From Within, known for horn-raisers such as “The End Of All We Know” and “I Am Damnation”.
