IN THIS MOMENT are extremely excited to be performing on this summer’s much anticipated Rockstar Mayhem Tour playing on the Mayhem Festival Stage alongside Atreyu, Norma Jean and 3 Inches of Blood. This tour will mark the start of the group’s official, massive worldwide touring schedule for their new full-length album, which is set for a summer release. The group were also hailed by Alternative Press as “One of The Most Anticipated Releases of 2010.” Be sure to visit www.myspace.com/inthismoment to view their entire summer touring itinerary. Chris Howorth (guitars) further states: “As I write this we are furiously working on new songs for our upcoming CD due out this summer. We made a decision early on that this was gonna be a darker/heavier album than its predecessor, The Dream, and we are so stoked on the new ideas we have been coming up with. Some of these songs are pure groove metal, it’s so heavy and the best part is that Maria Brink and I are actually agreeing on a lot of this heavy stuff, where in the past there was a lot of clashing between us. We can’t wait to unleash the new material on our fans and everyone else around the world.

“I can’t even begin to tell you how honored and excited we are to be part of the Mayhem Festival this year. It’s pretty mind blowing that we were asked to be on yet another huge summer touring festival in the U.S. We owe Kevin Lyman a huge thank you for putting us on the Warped Tour last summer and now Mayhem in 2010. Mayhem is gonna be huge this year, the line-up is fucking killer w/ Korn, L.O.G., Zombie, 5FDP and Hatebreed, among others. It’s a great mix of rock and metal. We are really excited to play some of our new, heavy songs and really make an impact on the Mayhem crowd. We are also the only female fronted band on the tour and it should help us really stick out from the all the other acts, but it’s our responsibility to throw down for the ladies (haha, I can’t believe I just said that). It’s shaping up to be a huge year for IN THIS MOMENT and again we are honored and so grateful for the opportunity to be on Mayhem 2010. See you there!”

In an ever continuous quest to defy the odds and break down barriers between the metal and hard rock community, Southern California’s IN THIS MOMENT took their heavy brand of metallic, pure, rock fury and captivated audiences across North America on this past summer’s entire Warped Tour festival. The band won over a slew of unsuspecting masses with their charismatic, intense and overly dynamic stage show. The band has proven that they can stand tall with anyone. Whether it’s performing alongside such metal titans as Ozzy Osbourne and Megadeth or such hot new bands as Aiden, Saosin and Underoath.
