DIAMOND PLATE CONFIRMS U.S. TOUR WITH KITTIE

Chicago thrashers DIAMOND PLATE have confirmed a US tour with the all-girl Canadian metal outfit KITTIE.

DIAMOND PLATE will join KITTIE plus DIRGE WITHIN for the six-week trek, which kicks off on August 12th in Waterloo, Iowa.

DIAMOND PLATE have issued the following statement:

"Being a young, brand new band that has never toured before, we couldn't be more grateful to Kittie for giving us this chance to break in our road shoes.  The energy of our music is best felt live and we plan on destroying any place we play.  Although this is a different kind of metal crowd for us, it is only a beginning step.  See you on the road; we'll be out for a very long time!"
