Additionally, Phelps, having also appeared on 'Ascension Codes,' and Giffin have previously toured with CYNIC during the band's 'Carbon Based Anatomy' and 'Kindly Bent to Free Us' tours. CYNIC founding member Paul Masvidal comments, "Come join us for a night of Cynic/Atheist magic! We'll be celebrating our lifelong journey together with a night of progressive music and timeless memories. Don't miss it!" ATHEIST's Kelly Schaefer adds, "This has been something that Paul (Cynic) and I have been talking about in some capacity since we were in our early 20s. It's surreal to share a 30 year milestone together, and this tour will showcase for us a chance to play songs from our first 3 records as a special trilogy anniversary set, including songs not performed live in decades. Two titans of technical progressive metal coming together for a unicorn of a tour....one you will not want to miss!" Tour sponsor Simon of Pull the Plug Patches comments, "Pull The Plug Patches have been longtime fans since the early 1990s, and both Atheist and Cynic are two of our absolute favorite bands. It's an honour to be able to be the presenting sponsor on such a landmark tour for two of the godfathers of Progressive Death Metal. I remember picking up 'Unquestionable Presence' right around the time of release, blew me away and is to this day one of my favorite albums. And for Cynic my first introduction was the At Death's Door II' sampler that Roadrunner released. I bought Focus the day it came out and again, one of my all time favorite records."
