Unto Others Suddenly Dropped from W.A.S.P. and Armored Saint Tour

When it was announced not too long ago that goth rock outfit Unto Others was going to be touring with the likes of W.A.S.P. and Armored Saint, I gotta admit — it felt like a “one of things is not like the other” kind of moment. But who was I to judge? There have been stranger bills in the past.

Well it turns out that roughly a month after scheduling conflicts caused Death Angel to be replaced by Armored Saint, the ‘Album One Alive World Tour’ is once again undergoing a lineup change. This time around, it’s Unto Others who’s no longer involved on the tour, though the band revealed via social media their ousting happened without any explanation.

According to their social media post, it sounds like all of this happened out of the blue. And while they weren’t given a solid reason for their removal, what they were told seemingly isn’t adding up for the Unto Others team.

“North America:

“We will not be touring with W.A.S.P. this fall. They have decided it is in their best interest to drop us from the tour. This came with no warning or room for discussion on our end, and with 7 weeks to go before the run, really leaves us with minimal time to plan a suitable alternative.

“As im sure many will be left wondering why, we will tell you only the facts we know:

“– W.A.S.P. told our team we never provided a marketing plan (we did, multiple times and have been working very hard promoting this tour and our new record.)

“That’s it. No other reason was given. We are disappointed with this decision, we are all W.A.S.P. fans, and it’s a shame when things work out this way so we are sorry. We will get some North American dates going as soon as we can and keep you updated.

“Subsequently, we have to cancel our Halloween show at Jackknife Brewing in Kelowna, BC which was routed as part of this tour.

“On a more positive note: We are playing Maryland Death Fest Pre-Fest in Baltimore, MD on May 21st 2025.”

There’s no news at this time if anyone will be replacing Unto Others on the bill. If you’d still like to catch the show when it comes to your area, be sure to check out the list of dates below.
