UNEARTH frontman
Trevor Phipps: "
'The March' symbolizes both the evil and hopeful sides of humanity. The Evil: With the constant balancing act of power within government, religion and our financial institutions, there lies the chance of those most hungry for power to alter and restrict our freedoms for their gain. The Hopeful: This represents the faith in mankind as the most powerful force on the planet. If we come together and do not fight over religion, class and borders then we hold the key to a peaceful world. There are two possible futures in store; either a March of power and greed or a March of a unified human race."
UNEARTH launched a U.S. headlining tour last night (October 1) in Baltimore, Maryland. Presented by
Live Nation, the four-week, 26-city trek features support from
PROTEST THE HERO,
THE ACACIA STRAIN,
WHITECHAPEL and
GWEN STACY.
