Technical death metal titans Archspire, self-proclaimed as the world’s fastest band, are hitting the road this spring for the massive “Long Roads Big Loads Tour.” Supporting their highly anticipated new album Too Fast to Die—arriving April 10th, 2026—the run features an uncompromising support package including Undeath, Crown Magnetar, and Mutilation Barbecue. Known for their staggering BPMs and irreverent humor, the band is using this tour to debut new material and “expose” their new drummer to North American audiences for the first time. The trek kicks off in Calgary on April 24th and tears through major markets like Toronto, New York, and Chicago before a hometown finale in Vancouver on June 6th.
Fresh off the success of their blistering single “Carrion Ladder,” Archspire is promising a high-octane live experience that pushes the boundaries of human endurance. The band’s commentary remains characteristically blunt, warning fans that they’ll be “abusing gas station bathroom stalls” across the continent while encouraging crowds to heckle the new guy behind the kit. With Too Fast to Die poised to verify their status as the apex predators of the tech-death scene, this tour is set to be one of the most intense extreme metal events of 2026. Fans can expect a setlist packed with their signature “Stay Tech” precision and the kind of chaotic energy that only a band of this velocity can generate.
