Hellllllllllllllllllllllz yeah son. My 3 favorite bands on the same stage! Chimaira #1 obviously, but disturbed and KSE are up there too. I trust that you guys will push to have a show in Cleveland?!?! Shows of this calibur NEVER visit the “Rock and Roll” city. Looking forward to this big time.
we’ll do to the disturbed fans what slayer fans did to trivium’s
FUCK YEAH!!!!!
i like all of these bands!!!
Nice line up except LC. I would like to see you guys tour with Lamb Of God and God Forbid. That would be a killer show!
awwwww shit, new tour! but fuck, man, it sucks when u guys arent headlining. get, like, 5 song sets and shit. why the fuck arent you guys at the top of the bill?? grrrr.
Just come to some where close to Tucson…
Great Exposure! Nice Job guys! I’m going to follow you guys for 4 shows around the Ill/IN/OH area so this will be EPIC!
Not a Fan of Disturbed Because O ack ack ack ack! and not into Coil what so ever and REALLY looking forward to you guys absolutely flooring the other bands fans with your Ninja style riffing and Mark’s One of a Kind Crushing Vocals and Man O man Chris bring those 808s like you have never done before!
Be Safe and Healthy and Shred like I know you guys do!
STEAL THE SHOW EVERY NIGHT AND PLAY LIKE EVERY SHOW IS YOUR LAST!
There is going to be some HUGE Jaw Dropping moments for these fans who have NOT had the pleasure of being Pounded Into Oblivion!
Much Love!
See you in H-Town, hopefully you have a headlining tour come through here as well.
Come to Minneapolis!!!!
I hope the tour will come to Atlanta! Great area with lots of people! I would love to see this. Plus, it will be around my birthday!
Come to f**king AUS boys!!!!!!
Better stop by Pittsburgh or a major surrounding city, lol. I’ll even see it in Brownieville (Cleveland). When I saw that bulletin on my MySpace that made my day. FINALLY on a major tour to fuck shit up! Can’t wait for this one.
- E
You should come to Pittsburgh for sure. If not I’m sure I’ll make the trip again to Brownieville as well as I do for most Chimaira shows.
I don’t want to get “down with the sickness” or anything but this sucks. I don’t know if I am willing to pay as much as it’s going to be to see you guys play 5-6 songs. Get work where you can but jesus christ, headline for once.
Come to Canada it would be so fucking awesome!!!
im with fuckin brandon!! COME TO FUCKIN ATLANTA!! we need to rape these emo faggots! bring it on!!
I’m not going to lie. This is an awful lineup, in my opinion.
When can we pre-order the album??
OT: whoa whoa whoa, what’s goin on on the main page
*excitement* something’s coming soon, isnt it??
Oh you asshole, I got all jones’d when I saw that main page, thought I would hear a sample or be able to pre-order…nah, just a tease…still love you though
OMG just little bastards, alaways playing w/ us… just remember the halloween video… you got me one more time !!!
as Kyle and Mr. Parker i was excited when i saw the main page, thinking i could some new fuckin track…. and since this dramatic event, i’m still crying loool
hope we could hear it soon
Don’t need a usa tour..
Tour Europe, we got the better beer
Aw man I HATE disturbed…but with you guys on there it makes it 10 times better.
P.S. DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS IS THE WORST SONG INVENTED
Should be at most shows around the Great Lakes!! Love Coil for sure and of course, you guys are totally sick!
I like Disturbed but none of the other bands, Chimaira should Headline or at least co-headline. Either way…so, when can we look at pre-ordering guys!?!
I too thought that we would maybe get a listen to a new track. I had to click back on my computer a couple times because I thought I might have been clicking a wrong (title or picture). I was devastated. Post one soon PLEASE!!!!
Mark, Jim, Andols, Rob, Matt, Chris…. POST A SONG!!!!!!!!!!
This is a weak tour.
Chimaira shouldn’t even do this, what a disgrace.
Pay $30-50 a ticket to see one band, what a rip off.
hell yeah!!! cant wait!!!
So we have Secrets of The Dead and Impending Doom, like the names! Can’t wait to hear them!
its like the puzzle is being completed day-by-day lol
keeping you anxious to see it completed
till you cant wait any longer you start picking at your skin then eventually your face cus your just so anxious you cant help yourself hahahaha
I’m sure some of you will think that I am a fuckin’ little boring cunt but I didn’t know Chimaira was expert in torture…. everyday, we ask to hear at least 1 or 2 minutes but I begin to believe that we’re all misunderstood !!!!
and I guess I’m gonna loco in a few days lol
My patience exceeded its limits
this is the ultimatum of a desperate guy, hear my desperate cry !!!! looool
I dont Care B-)
Shit I should have brought Cheese to this Whine party!
Does Disturbed have a good following? CHECK!
Is Chimaira on the verge of breaking through to the other side? CHECK!
So why wouldn’t they get on a tour that will bring them the most goers possible???
If we can just get a few fans from other bands each night to see how True a metal band is like Chimaira then you know what? It’s a good damn day!
The fuckin label has all say in what can be prereleased to most extent so hell they just got it themself so WTF is the bitching about! Sure Chimaira post Us a song before you even let the label hear it! I honestly think and understand you’re utter impatience to get a new song and Chimaira for one is a band that does indeed give us the fans a little song or two before release but with all the bitching and whining why should they?
Give them some time to really listen to the finished product and be grateful when they do give us a song off of the new album!
If you ONLY knew what they had in store for us fans I think ALOT of you would be going apeshit over it!
So in short! Rellax and enjoy the one of a kind insight they have given us throughout the process! I for one am honored to be given such an inside look at the whole process!
I know you are ALL as pumped up as I am but come on guys let our boys put the finishing touches on the album and give us what we want at THEIR terms! Please!
Thanks and Chimaira 4 Life!
Just Ease up please! It’s our attitude and what we post that really the band takes to heart(Unless it is stupid unfound crap) so show more emotion on your excitement to hear a new song and wish them luck for this album to be the one that takes them to the TOP!
Much Love and I know you might think I’m being shitty but if you know me I’m just trying to end the shitty comments and thoughts that may detract from the bands task at hand! Providing us with the best quality musicianship and Sound they could ever give us! It all takes times my friends!
THANKS!
i’d like to atleast see the full tracklist…somethings wrong on the first page. you can only see secrets of the dead and impending doom.
to answer 1ceman : houra !!! viva chimaira, i’m very very happy, viva chimaira !!
was it a good coment for u ? am I enough excited ? did I show enough emotion for u ?
Everyone just needs to chill out and smoke some lysol.
Shut the fuck up 1ceman.
Chimaira, give us a fucking album already.
I go to many shows so I’m not hard to find!
Hope to see you!
What’s this? Trying to be an internet tough guy? That’s lame, what are you, fucking 15?
Your mommy is calling you, the cookies are getting cold.
CHIMAIRA, CHIMAIRA, CHIMAIRA, CHIMAIRA, WINNIPEG, WINNIPEG
FUCKIN PUMPED!! 90 -DAYS TILL NEW ALBUM. cant wait for the show, and u better show-up in winnipeg
Am I seeing this right…ten tracks? not complaining but thought that itunes screenshot that was posted while back showed more, like thirteen or something, hope the others are on bonus cd. i need chimaira to survive
looks like a picture of a moon on the cover?
I just want to pre-order the album…
BWAHAHA!
Spandex motherfucker has no idea who is talking to.
Of dear.
I think he should sign up to the official Chimaira forums.
Fucking right! A new album!!! Cant wait, Hope you’re coming somewhere close to me, i’d love to see you live
I met Iceman at the Chimaira Christmas 9 show and he’s a cool guy (in an internet tough guy kinda way… LOL). He’s only saying that YES we all can’t wait for the new album and chill out. I’m sure if the guys could release it right now they would. They just have to go through the motions and let the label listen to it first. Also, at least they would get an early paycheck for all the hard work they put into this album. I like all the anticipation as well and cannot wait for the new album. It will only make it that much better when we ALL get to listen to it on April 21st. Cannot fucking wait!
To answer the guy who was talkin about seeing the tracklist…THINK YOU MORON!!!
they arent going to spoil the new album by showing us all the songs at once!!! DUH!!!
its thier way of giving us what we all wanted when the first tracks were done being recorded a fucking taste of whats to come.
shit read the interview with Matt and Mark…its going to come guys, just hang in there
anyway, im sure they will screw with our heads as the days to the release of the album draws nearer and they will reveal more tracks
I like how “don’t touch my spandex motherfucker” accuses 1ceman of being an “internet tough guy”…. especially when he is the one telling people to shut the fuck up like he’s an “internet tough guy”. If you were any kind of Chimaira fan, which is why you are on this site, you would have noticed the picture of 1ceman winning that sweet ass guitar and certainly came to your senses that he isn’t a 15 year old kid. Kids that contradict themselves….. lol. Anyway, front page of the site looks like it might be the album cover, just gotta wait… i like what they are doing, keeps you checking in for new stuff, great idea!
This lineup sucks balls.
I’m from south africas and we never get bands, i think chimaira kick major ass!!!!!! those that bitch should be ashamed of yourselves, you lucky you get to even see these bands, so what if its a gig with disturbed and LC, its still shit hot!!! i think most of you people need to learn gratitude. CHIMAIRA RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The best thing is we will get song a soon but when I’m not sure! They always hook us up with a track before the album! Hell I listened to Nothing Remains and I want to say Resurrection SO many times before the albums came out that I actually skipped them for the 1st listen of the CD!
Thanks for the kind words and can you guys help me remember you? I remember so many guys that I’m not sure! Are you guys on the forums? If not sign up and that is where the band posts updates and we are already planning the Chimaira Christmas X-A Decade of Destruction! Love to have you guys! Anyway shoot me an email to tspeaker1@msn.com so we can talk and I can keep you guys in the loop of what is going on in Chimaira Town! Some amazing shit is coming so if you shoot me an email I can keep you guys updated!
The more we have at the Xmas show the better and all of you are welcome to join my tab at the bar! See you guys on Tour!
CHEERS to 2009 being the year of Chimaira!
FUCK disturbed, but whatever i will still go
See you bitches in Reading.
New shit sounds amazing!! Can’t wait for the album and tour, Council Bluffs, IA won’t know what hit it..

hey dipshits
those complaining why Chimaira arent headlining is because this IS Disturbed’s headlining tour.
get your facts straight.
started in 01 with Disturbed alongside Adema, Drowning Pool and another that i cant seem to remember.
Act 2 was with Disturbed, Taproot, Chevelle and Unloco
Act 3 was Disturbed, Stone Sour, Flyleaf and Nonpoint
This year’s act is far different for the fact that they, along with other sponsors, are gonna give you a bang for your buck with ADDITIONAL bands that will be on the Ernie Ball 2nd Stage, along with a Tattoo Festival, motocross show, and a Vendor Village.
Some dates differ but 2nd stage acts include: Suicide Silence, After the Burial, Bury Your Dead, Crooked X, Spineshank, Born of Osiris.
for my show in IA, i get ALL this for 43.25.
so quit your complaining.
ebay sniper…
I came across your site while searching google for just this topic! Your views are interesting and well thought out….
