British progressive metal forefathers SikTh will embark on their first ever US tour this week as main support for Periphery on the Sonic Unrest Tour. Chon and Toothgrinder round out the package for the 23-city trek, beginning August 4th in Raleigh, NC. A full list of dates can be seen below, as well as a new teaser video for the upcoming tour.

SikTh vocalist Mikee Goodman comments: "Touring America has always been a huge goal for SikTh; up to this point it hasn't been possible, but we're pleased to announce we are finally coming over as direct support to Periphery in August! August is a significant month in our career as it marks the 16th anniversary of our first release (The Trees Are Dead & Dried Out Wait For Something Wild). We've taken our time, but this is a great tour and opportunity to play for our very patient fans in the US and also make new fans!"
