Front Line Assembly are gearing up for a US tour, the band's first since 2007. The tour is in support of their latest full-length release, 'Improvised. Electronic. Device.' Die Krupps and Cyanotic are set to open each show.
The new album's first single, 'Shifting Through the Lens,' is the most danceable track FLA has created in the last decade. Al Jourgensen (Ministry, Revolting Cocks) guests on the sonic industrial onslaught of 'Stupidity,' which Bill [Leeb, keyboards/vocals] says was "inspired by the Ministry album 'The Last Sucker.' Jeremy [Inkel, keyboards] was on tour with his other band, Left Spine Down, ... and he got to know Al really well. We're really excited to have him on it!"
Front Line Assembly formed in 1986 when Leeb left Skinny Puppy and issued the first FLA album, 'Initial Command.' Since then, the Canadian electro-industrial band has released 16 full-length releases.
