Arkansas doom metal masters Pallbearer are not finished celebrating their landmark sophomore release just yet. The band has announced a new leg of touring dedicated to their 2014 classic, Foundations Of Burden, extending the run well into the spring of 2026.
Consistent with previous stops on this cycle, the upcoming shows will feature the band performing the album in its entirety, revisiting the crushing emotional weight and soaring melodies that defined their breakthrough era.
In an Instagram post, the band wrote: “It’s no secret that we’re passionate about Foundations of Burden. Revisiting the record last year was invigorating, and presenting it all on stage as the year culminated was such a blast for us. We are so pleased to announce many more of these performances in 2026, including a reprise of appearances alongside the funereal chaos apparitions in @knollgrind”
The newly announced itinerary is divided into two distinct phases. The first leg kicks off in mid-February, cutting a path through the Midwest and the band’s home region of the South, beginning with a show in Oklahoma City on February 19.
Following a brief respite, the tour resumes in April for an East Coast run. For this second stretch, Pallbearer will be joined by the avant-garde grindcore unit Knoll, who will provide support for the majority of the dates.
Tickets for the new shows are scheduled to go on sale this Friday at 11:00 a.m. EST.
