Norma Jean will be headlining the "Explosions 2009" US tour, presented by Hot Topic, Monster Energy Drink, Activision / Tony Hawk: Ride, Denny’s All Nighter, Rockett Clothing, Keep A Breast, Solid State Records, Vagrant Records, and Century Media Records.

Rolling out in late November and running through late December, the tour is the band's first headlining trek since the Fall of last year and boasts an impressive lineup with a few surprises from the powerful live band. Norma Jean handpicked the bands for the tour's impressive bill: Horse The Band, The Chariot and Arsonists Get All The Girls.

In addition the spectacular bill, Norma Jean has a surprise in store for their longtime followers: in select cities, which will be announced at a later time, the band will perform their breakthrough album "Bless The Martyr and Kiss the Child" in its entirety (save for the album's 15 minute track).
