Ryan's Hope have announced fall tour dates in support of their Punknews Records debut Apocalypse in Increments. The band will play a few shows through October, including dates supporting Holy Roman Empire, a Halloween show with friends Project Threeville and the Black Tie Bombers, and a Virginia Beach show with the Lawrence Arms, Smoke Or Fire and the Blackout Pact. Following those shows the band will head out on a November tour with Jump Start Records band Giving Chase. The band recently launched a MySpace page chronicling their early recordings, including self-released material like the 2002's Weighing What Matters. The band also recently appeared on the new Thick Records compilation Hair - Chicago Punk Cuts. They were part of a group of 14 bands who recorded in 14 days at Chicago's Argyle Room studios for the project. The record features tracks from the Killing Tree, the Methadones and the Bomb among others.
