Trivium and Bullet For My Valentine have announced the North American leg of their 2025 Poisoned Ascendancy tour.
The two bands have confirmed they’ll play the US and Canada from March to May, with support coming from August Burns Red. Sylosis will open the tour up until April 17, after which point Bleed From Within will become the first band onstage. Tickets go on general sale on Friday (September 20) and the full list of Poisoned Ascendancy dates are below.
The North American tour will follow the European leg of the Poisoned Ascendancy tour, which will take place through January and February. Trivium and Bullet For My Valentine will be performing their respective 2005 albums, Ascendancy and The Poison, in full to celebrate their 20th anniversaries.
Of the new dates, Bullet For My Valentine comment: “We are super excited to announce we are coming back to the USA in 2025 with our friends Trivium, to bring you the Poisoned Ascendancy tour. We’re going to be celebrating 20 years of our debut album The Poison and Trivium’s Ascendancy. It’s the metal tour of 2025, so don’t miss out.”
Trivium add: “This is a celebration for the old fans that were there at 9am at Ozzfest to catch a couple songs from a band in Iron Maiden shirts. It’s for the new fans that have been listening to the deep cuts but never caught them on a recent tour. And lastly, it’s for both BFMV and us to take a moment to reflect on how amazing these 20 years have been, how fast they’ve gone, and how important these albums are for the both of our bands. Having August Burns Red, Bleed From Within, and Sylosis joining us only makes this more special. We can’t wait to play Ascendancy for you!”
Ascendancy was released on March 15, 2005, as Trivium’s debut on renowned label Roadrunner Records. It only charted at 151 in the band’s native United States, but received critical acclaim and became a sleeper hit, especially in the UK following Trivium’s main-stage set at Download festival, Donington, that June. The album has since been certified Gold in the UK.
The Poison came out on October 3, 2005, and was Bullet For My Valentine’s debut album. It reached number 21 on the album charts in the band’s native UK and also received critical acclaim. The album has since been certified Gold in the UK and in the United States, and certified Platinum in Germany.
