Alt-metal vets Staind are heading out to celebrate 25 years of their third studio album, Break the Cycle. While Staind had had a modicum of success in their earlier days, this record and its lead single “It’s Been Awhile” propelled them to superstardom.
In honor of this anniversary, Staind will be touring for much of the year and they’re bringing along their peers in Seether, Hoobastank, and/or Hinder. You can grab your tickets at staindofficial.com! VIP is also avaliable for the September shows.
Note: The July date on the poster was Rock the Country in Anderson, SC, and has been canceled.
