Last month, Nuclear Blast announced the signing of modern metal outfit, Amaranthe. To break up the recording sessions for their upcoming, yet-untitled 2020 studio album, the Swedish/Danish group kick off their 8-date Helix Nordic Tour 2019 next week.

In anticipation of the tour and to give fans a taster of what they can expect at the shows, Amaranthe have launched a drum-cam video, in which Morten Løwe Sørensen can be seen performing the track "Call Out My Name" during their show at the Ice Hall in Helsinki on February 16, 2019.

Watch the video by Antti Kangasaho below:

Amaranthe recently announced their North American tour 2020. The 37-date trek will kick-off at the Soundstage in Baltimore on August 20 and will make stops in Chicago, Vancouver and Denver before concluding on October 2 at the Riverfront Live in Cincinnati, OH.

Joining the band on the tour are special guests Finnish heavy metallers and label-mates Battle Beast, as well as Boston symphonic metal band Seven Spires.

Amaranthe comments, "After thousands and thousands of fans asking for it, and more than two years since the last time, it is FINALLY time to announce our return to the North America! "Excited" just only begins to describe it, as we have truly loved every single one of the many tours we have done on that beautiful continent. We will also bring our Finnish friends in the phenomenal Battle Beast and our American buddies in Seven Spires will be opening on the tour, altogether truly a package worth seeing! We are already counting down the months, days and hours until we can get kicking in the USA again!"

General admission tickets for the tour are now available for purchase here.
