Hot on the heels of wrapping up the recording of their third full-length album, Animosity, Sevendust will launch a twenty-two-date North American tour with Texas rockers Drowning Pool in tow. The tour kicks off August 21st in Athens, Georgia and winds down in Corpus Christi, Texas on September 19th.

The Atlanta-based quintet recorded Animosity with producer Ben Grosse (Filter, Fuel ) in the unlikely location of Trans Continental Studios, the breeding ground of Lou Pearlman's boy bands, and rubbed elbows with O-Town during the recording process.
