This tour is in support of their hauntingly beautiful third album, Broken! Broken was released digitally in the U.S. this past August on Columbia Records; the physical release date is still on the horizon.

In support of the release of Broken, their upcoming tour, and the imminent HOWL-iday, they've released the ghoulish and unsettling new video for their song "Unbalanced Pieces," directed by Hiro Murai. Hiro Murai says "The initial concept for 'Unbalanced Pieces' came from a conversation I had with the band over our shared love for David Lynch, especially his off putting ambiguity and uncanny portrayal of a dystopian suburbia. The making of the video consisted of shooting still photographs of suburban Rancho Cucamonga, which we then projected inside a dark studio to give us a surreal sense of space and atmosphere." - Watch it here
