MIKE PORTNOY Explains Long Wait For ADRENALINE MOB Album

The group has been confirmed as one of the support acts for GODSMACK on the Massachusetts group's post-Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival headlining run throughout North America in August.

To coincide with the tour, ADRENALINE MOB will release a four-song EP in August.

Commented Portnoy: "Most labels require a three-month 'setup' for a well-promoted
release... As it is now late July, delivering the album to a label TODAY won't get a release 'till October... and basically ALL labels won't
release a new album past October (unless you are MADONNA, LADY GAGA, EMINEM, etc.). So rather than us taking these GODSMACK shows with NOTHING available and a release not likely 'till January (or so), we decided to put out an EP to give you all a taste of the MOB now so we can play some shows and still set up a full-length release!

He added, "Believe me, we are as anxious as you all to hear this music!"

Aug. 16 - Myrtle Beach, SC - House Of Blues
Aug. 20 - Watertown, NY - Watertown Grandstands
Aug. 21 - Hamilton, ON - Copps Colisseum
Aug. 23 - Dubuque, IA - Five Flags Arena
