For all the wild-eyed ambition of Ears Will Pop & Eyes Will Blink, it's easy to forget that Bodies of Water haven't been knocking out Jesus'd-up opuses for years now. In fact, just as Ears Will Pop is the band's full-length debut, their forthcoming easterly tour is the L.A. band's first time doing the band thing near that Atlantic body of water. They'll warm up, however, with a number of shows near the Pacific.

Along the way, Bodies will be joined by the rather disparate likes of the Go! Team and Phosphorescent. Boy, a bunch of good Christian kids, stuck on the wrong side of the country with those sugar-addled weirdos and that sadsack with the beard? Pray for them, willya?
