As I Lay Dying commented:

“After 3 sold out shows, we have been invited back to Russia for an arena tour. See you all in March! Thank you for so many great memories already and more to come”

The band’s decision to tour in Russia has been decisive due to the country’s invasion of Ukraine. However, the group are no strangers to controversy.

Frontman Tim Lambesis recently launched a new version of the band following a 2024 mass exodus that saw everyone exit the group except him. The controversial vocalist, who previously served prison time for trying to hire a hitman to kill one of his former wives, was left in that position after footage of him engaging in altercations with his latest wife and their dog surfaced online. The band have since returned to the stage with the new lineup having debuted in Russia.
