- Karma to Burn
- Mount Carmel (2010) (2010–2011) (2012–2013) The Warp Riders Tour was a worldwide concert tour by American heavy metal band the Sword. The tour began on October 1, 2010 in the United States and ended on May 12, 2011 in London, England to promote the band's third album Warp Riders. Following the United States leg of the tour, the band joined Soundwave, a travelling music festival, in Australia in 2011. They then performed an additional 12 shows in Europe. Prior to the tour, the band supported Metallica on their World Magnetic Tour in September 2010. They also performed at the Austin City Limits Festival, between October 8 and October 10.
Between November and December 2010 a 26-date European leg was due to take place, but was cancelled early in October due to "circumstances beyond [the band's] control", later revealed to be the departure of drummer Trivett Wingo from the band. Drummer Kevin Fender joined the Sword as a touring member of the band in November, and performed with the band on a rescheduled America leg throughout November and December, and on the Australian Soundwave festival leg in 2011.
