To celebrate the release of their new LP, This Could Be Heartbreak, Aussie metalcore outfit The Amity Affliction have announced they'll be hitting the road in 2017 for a regional tour, with very special guests Hellions and Ocean Grove.

Having spent most of 2016 playing the European summer festival circuit at events such as Hellfest, Download, Rock AM Ring and more, the Australian shows  will be the band's first regional outing since early 2015.

The Amity Affliction kick off their run home at Perth's Redfest NYE event, before moving on to play in Adelaide, Cairns, Townsville, Gympie, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Coffs Harbour, Newcastle, Wollongong, Canberra, Frankston, Geelong and Hobart through January and February. 

This Could Be Heartbreak is the group's first offering since 2014's Let The Ocean Take Me which peaked at #1 on the ARIA Albums Chart.
