More Dope tour news!
The highly anticipated Machine Killer tour begins tomorrow! On the eve of what promises to be a tour not to miss, we got news. Big news. The Machine Killer Tour is running through the end of February of next year! That’s right – if you haven’t gotten the chance to see Dope opening for the almighty Static-X and Sevendust, you’ve got another shot to get in on the action! We love to see it. You can find info about the extended dates right here on Dope’s official site.
If this wasn’t your sign to get tickets now, I don’t know what more to tell you. I know I’ve got mine!
Along with this incredible announcement, we were treated to a new tour poster that showcases the additional dates. You can see it below – click the poster for full size!
Dope’s official Facebook also posted a short publicizing the extended dates – click here to view it.
EDF’s Dope Merch Round-up #1
I did this a couple months back and decided to make it a semi regular feature: today, I’ll be showing you my picks in Dope’s merch store. Welcome to EDF’s first official Dope Merch Round-up! I know it can be tough to pick when you’ve got so many great choices, so allow me to give you a hand. I might also do this for Static-X merch as well, just for fun!
As a side note, I would like to emphasize that no one is paying me for this post – this is strictly my opinion and only my opinion. I’m not going to waste your time with stuff I don’t truly like, and no amount of money will get me to tell you something I don’t believe.
With that out of the way, let’s get to it!
I believe this one was on my last informal Merch Roundup. Always liked this pic of Edsel, so badass. As of this writing, this shirt is $13.99!
Classic cheeky Monster High shirt. It also comes in a hoodie!
Going a bit different for my next pick. Yeah, you probably have a shit ton of coffee mugs at home. Add this one anyway.
Speaking as a female, I’d probably ask you out if you wore this, tbh. Or at least give you that “you have good taste” head nod.
That’s it for our first Dope Merch Round up! Hopefully my picks were helpful if you’re considering making a purchase from Dope’s store. There’s a lot of awesome merch there, so really you can’t go wrong no matter what you choose.
Spotlight Song: I Am
VIEW SCREENCAPS // VIDEO CREDIT // LYRICS
Our first Spotlight is a song I’m rather attached to: I Am, from Dope’s 2003 release Group Therapy. For those not familiar with this song, I Am is the fuck you anthem you didn’t know you needed until now. You might recognize a blast from the past in this video: Mistress Juliya, aka Juliya Chernetsky makes an appearance. Quite the hot ticket in the early 00s, Juliya was basically everywhere on the metal scene back then. Couldn’t escape that girl.
Please enjoy the video, and as always if you like what you see why not subscribe to Dope’s official Youtube channel? You’ll have access to just about their entire catalogue there. They’re sitting at about 116K subs and even though that makes them eligible for a silver Creator Award, we all know we can do better than that. So get to it.

Gallery Updates!
EDF Photo is 300+ photos strong! I set out to make EDF.org your #1 source for all things Edsel Dope, and honestly I have to say I think we’re crushing it.
Within the next few days, we are going to have the following:
- A new Flashback Sunday, which will be every other week and highlight something notable or interesting about Edsel (maybe an interview, maybe a pic, who knows?)
- A Video Spotlight, which I think will also be every other week, highlighting not only Edsel’s work with Dope but any work he’s featured in. (Makeshift Romeo, Drama Club…)
And of course, we’re still looking forward to Dope joining Static-X on the Machine Killer tour later this year! Amazing stuff in the pipeline, for sure.
Flashback Sunday: Metal Hammer Golden Gods 2014
In this first ever Flashback Sunday, we’re going all the way back to 2014 and this very cheeky Golden Gods black carpet interview with Edsel and Nikk. There’s 61 caps from this interview in EDF Photo, so check ’em out when you get a chance.
New Youtube Short: Machine Killer Tour
I’m just comin’ at you with updates today. Earlier we were greeted with the news that Dope’s joining Static-X and Sevendust on the Machine Killer North American Tour, and now we have a new short on Youtube from Dope’s official account publicizing this tour. (This is actually the first short they’ve posted, hopefully this is the first of many? We’ll see!)
Check out the short here, and to visit Dope’s Youtube page click here. If you haven’t already, be sure to subscribe and ring the bell so that you get ALL post notifications!
Tour News: A surprise, to be sure…
But a welcome one! The Machine Killer North American tour is coming, and you better believe we are stoked.
Dope is touring with the almighty Static-X once again in the fall, and joining them for this go-round is Sevendust! Not the headlining tour we were expecting, but with this lineup I think it’s going to be pretty fucking rad.
For complete details, check out Dope’s official site.
