musicNEWS: Sparta Replace The Vines, Plot July Release
06-14-04 Keavin
.
The wait is almost over for Sparta fans. Geffen will release the follow-up to Sparta’s critically acclaimed debut on July 13th. The three former members of At the Drive-In have dubbed their sophomore release “Porcelain”, with the lead off single “Breaking the Broken”.

We just got word that the band will hit the road later this month with Incubus to support the new album. The band was previously booked as part of this year’s Lollapalooza festival, but it appears this opportunity opened up with The Vines pulled out of the Incubus tour earlier this month. An official announcement of the change is expected soon.  The outing with Incubus kicks off on June 24th at the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City. 

Sparta primed fans for this tour with unforgettable performance in the spot directly before the reunited Pixies at this year’s Coachella festival.  

Before we get to the tour dates, here is a sneak peak at the new CD—a stream of the first single “Breaking the Broken”.
