I AM GHOST – the revered Long Beach, California-based dark rock sextet – will align with Strung Out for a 3 month nation-wide tour  starting this month in support of their debut full-length album, Lovers’ Requiem.  Along with Strung Out, the band will be joined by A Wilhelm Scream on the first half of the tour and Evergreen Terrace on the second.

One of the most visually and aurally dynamic live bands out there today, these O.C. goth rockers are masters of mixing classy with edgy and approaching polished musicianship with reckless abandon.  IAG’s live show falls nothing short of a cinematic adventure as they display their love for theatrics onstage while performing.

Lovers’ Requiem was produced by Michael “Elvis” Baskette (Iggy Pop, Chevelle, Cold) and proves to be violently but beautifully epic from beginning to end. I Am Ghost bring forth a breathtaking amalgam of vibrant strings, demonic guitar lines, choral flourishes and grinding punk rock. Boasting titles like “Our Friend Lazarus Sleeps,” “Pretty People Never Lie – Vampires Really Never Die” and “The Ship of Pills and Needful Things” Lovers’ Requiem perfects “Epicore,” the outfit’s unique, self-coined subgenre.

Here are I Am Ghost’s upcoming dates:
