The Amity Affliction Added To Vans Warped Tour

The Amity Affliction

Hard-rockin' Aussie heavyweights The Amity Affliction are capitalising on the success sent their way after netting three entries in this year's Hottest 100 countdown with the revelation that they will be spending a bit of time Stateside this year as part of the line-up for the renowned Vans Warped Tour.

The band — whose tracks The Weigh Down, Don't Lean On Me and Pittsburgh entered the triple j list at #71, #64 and #22 respectively — will wrap up the remainder of their The Weigh Downunder tour in Western Australia this weekend, with shows scheduled in Fremantle, Albany and Bunbury, before taking some time ahead of the US trip in June. 

Once there, they'll be joining the likes of Asking Alexandria, blessthefall, Crossfaith, Escape The Fate, Being As An Ocean, I Killed The Prom Queen, Matchbook Romance, The Wonder Years and many more — not that that info helps unless you're affluent enough to be attending the touring fest (or super-masochistic).

For the rest of us, we'll have to make do with the back end of their national tour and any other chance we have to catch them before they set off once more for the Northern Hemisphere. To keep abreast of Amity's upcoming gigs at home, head to theGuide or see The Music App.
