Female-fronted melodic death metallers The Agonist are preparing to hit the road as part of the 'Pandemonium Over North America Tour' featuring Kamelot, Alestorm, and Blackguard . Unfortunately, Lead guitarist Danny Marino will be unable to make the trek. Pascal "Paco" Jobin will be taking over lead guitar duties and guitarist Justin Deguire (ex-The Catalyst) will be on rhythm guitar.

The Escape EP (featuring two songs from THE AGONIST's upcoming full-length album) is going to be sold exclusively on the tour and online at CM Distro. At this time, the only way to get a physical copy of this limited-edition EP is to catch the band on the 'Pandemonium Over North America Tour' or to order via CM Distro. The EP will also be available in a digital format after the tour.

The Agonist's new full-length album is penciled in for an early 2012 release via Century Media Records.

"It has the same sort of schizophrenic side that 'Lullabies' has, but it also has some other I guess what you would call classic influences. Like, there's some Pantera influence, there's some Radiohead influence. I mean, there's a lot of influences that we didn't really have before." -Alissa White-Gluz (via MetalConcerts.net)
