Strung Out will be touring behind their forthcoming album Transmission.Alpha.Delta, out March 24, 2015 via Fat Wreck Records, on their Transmission.To.The.Nation Tour 2015 with Masked Intruder, Red City Radio and La Armada.
Strung Out will be broadcasting 12 tracks saturated with blistering metallic riffs, clobbering rhythms, and intricate melodies off their new album. From the explosive “The Animal and the Machine” to the anthemic flamenco-infused “Spanish Days” to the nuclear blast of “Tesla” to the ballsy solo laden “Black Maps” to the electrifying melody of “Nowheresville” – Transmission.Alpha.Delta tightropes between the catchy essence and energy of Strung Out’s early work and the darker, even more aggressive tenor of their later releases.
Easily one of the most influential punk bands still in existence today, Strung Out has managed to form the quintessential blend of melodic punk rock, progressive rock, and heavy metal in their twenty-five years of existence. Strung Out’s influence can be heard on releases from a number of artists, such as Rise Against, AFI, Thrice, and Avenged Sevenfold, to name a few. Today, Strung Out remains a worldwide powerhouse in the underground music scene with nearly a million albums sold collectively.
STRUNG OUT is Jason Cruz (vocals), Rob Ramos (guitar, vocals), Jake Kiley (guitar), Chris Aiken (bass), and Jordan Burns (drums).

Southern California metal laced punk rockers Strung Out will be releasing TRANSMISSION.ALPHA.DELTA on March 24, 2015 via Fat Wreck Records.
In an effort to record their strongest album to date, Strung Out teamed up with producer Kyle Black (Comeback Kid, Heart To Heart) and labored for nearly a year in and out of the studio. The result of that effort is incredible. Every song on the album blends a massive charge of sound with numerous intricate elements that jump right off of the page. From the explosive “The Animal and the Machine” to the anthemic flamenco-infused “Spanish Days” to the nuclear blast of “Tesla” to the ballsy solo laden “Black Maps” to the electrifying melody of “Nowheresville”, Transmission.Alpha.Delta tightropes between the catchy essence and energy of Strung Out’s early work and the darker, even more aggressive tenor of their later releases.
STRUNG OUT is Jason Cruz (vocals), Rob Ramos (guitar, vocals), Jake Kiley (guitar), Chris Aiken (bass), and Jordan Burns (drums). Tour dates including US, Europe, and Australia will be announced shortly.
