Seven Year Existence will be supporting Victory Records’ artists OTEP and Destrophy on the Smash The Control Machine Tour that will hit over 25 different cities across the U.S this summer. The tour, which runs from the beginning of August to the middle of September, will be the band’s first national tour after spending several years doing small regional tours across the Midwest and West side areas of the country.

“We can’t wait to get out there and rip it up,” says guitarist and founder Jason Ellett of Seven Year Existence. “We’ve always been a DIY death metal band from a small town in Central Illinois, so things have not come easy for us. Our band has worked extremely hard over the years and has played over 300 shows in several different markets. We knocked down so many obstacles to finally acquire our first national tour. It’s time for Seven Year Existence to be introduced to the masses and show metal heads out there what we can do on a much larger level.”

Seven Year Existence self-released two albums worth of material to present to new audiences all over the country. With 2005’s full-length album “Execute Erase” and 2007’s EP “I of God” in their repertoire, the band has kept audiences pumped and has shared the stage with Megadeth, Dimmu Borgir, Devildriver, Unearth, and more. Both albums together have sold over 5,000 units purely through grassroots marketing and touring. With their partnership through Synhergy Entertainment, the band’s music is now available worldwide on iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody, Napster, and many other popular retail outlets. Now fans demanding the band’s music can get it online and conveniently.
