SENSES FAIL Prep for Non-Stop Touring in 2009


Senses Fail Following a headlining tour this past fall to support their latest release Life Is Not a Waiting Room (Vagrant 10/08), SENSES FAIL are back at it, with plans to keep themselves busy on the road for most of the coming year. New dates are now booked for the band, leading up to this years Saints & Sinners Tour with Hollywood Undead, Haste The Day, and Brokencyde. Senses Fail has also been confirmed to play Bamboozle Left followed by a string of dates across Canada in April. Senses Fail will be performing on all dates of Warped Tour 2009 as well, and are about to add a European tour to their schedule.

Senses Fail vocalist Buddy Nielsen adds, "The economy sucks, the music industry sucks, business men are committing suicide, but I'm get much better at jiu-jitsu. I have been going off and on for a year and in the last 2 weeks I have progressed leaps and bounds compared to the other students in my class. I have diligently been working on my open guard and keeping my foe away from me with hip movements and foot control and in turn my closed guard has become much improved. I am finally feeling comfortable with delivering a string of attacks from that position. For all my new found strengths I still have many weaknesses such as, but not limited to, getting cross collared, inability to finish triangles, letting people take my back and many others. I would just like to say thank you to my school and I would really appreciate if everyone would come out and see Senses Fail on this tour."

Brian McTernan (Hot Water Music, Thrice) produced Life Is Not A Waiting Room at his Salad Days studio in Baltimore, MD, and the album debuted at #18 on the Billboard Top 200. The New Jersey-based group formed six years ago and released their debut EP, From the Depths of Dreams, in 2002. 2004's Let It Enfold You was followed by Still Searching in 2006. Senses Fail has performed multiple worldwide tours. The band is approaching 1 million albums sold across their catalogue over the span of their career.
