Grammy-nominated metal group AS I LAY DYING has just announced a new set of fall tour dates in North America and Europe. In support of their latest release The Powerless Rise - which debuted on the Billboard Top 200 chart at #10 - the band will kick off the run September 14th in El Paso, TX with support from ALL THAT REMAINS, UNEARTH and CARNIFEX. The tour will take the band down south, through the northeast, before making its way west through Canada, wrapping up October 11 in Chico, CA. As I Lay Dying will then end the year with shows throughout Europe (see below for full tour dates).

Prior to the fall tour, As I Lay Dying will be performing this Saturday, August 7th as part of the Maloof Money Cup presented by Vans which airs live on FUEL TV. The MMC - the world's premiere showcase for amateur and professional skateboarding - returns to Orange County for a third straight year, August 4th to 8th (during the 2010 OC Fair) and will award nearly $450,000 in cash and prizes in four professional U.S. championship competitions: the VOLCOM Street Pro, Women's Pro Street, Carl's Jr. Pro Vert Championships and the World Industries Amateur Championships.

In other news, As I Lay Dying has been nominated for a San Diego Music Award for Best Hard Rock Album with The Powerless Rise.
