Darkest Hour announce European tour
DARKEST HOUR have announced a headlining European tour!
Set for September and October this year, the tour will see the American melodic death metal band touring across mainland Europe and the UK as part of their 30 year anniversary celebrations.
The tour comes on the back of last year’s Perpetual | Terminal, with support coming from BLEEDING THROUGH, SHAI HULUD and DENIAL OF LIFE. Tickets for the tour will be available from Friday, May 2nd and can be purchased here.
Speaking about the tour, guitarist Mike Schleibaum says, “it feels unreal to the type the words, 30th Anniversary tour, but here we go! See you this fall EU & UK as we celebrate 30 years of DARKEST HOUR! When we started in 1995 we had no idea where this wild ride would take us, how much this band would enrich our lives, how thankful we would be for it all, and how hungry we would still be to keep the party going. We’ll be playing the most robust headline set we’ve ever played. We’ll be pull’n out all the hits, old jams, deep cuts, new cuts, new bangers, and everything in between.
Joining us will be long time friends, BLEEDING THROUGH who haven’t toured the EU / UK in over a decade. They’re releasing new music, and are as heavy, tight, and ready to destroy as ever. SHAI HULUD who have been friends of ours, almost since our inception, and who have stood the test of time as one of the most underground, yet revered heroes of our scene. DENIAL OF LIFE are putting it all on the line as the opener and will set the night off with their unique style of hardcore / thrash / metal that fits right in on this line up. Every one of these shows will be so special to us, get your tickets, tell your friends, and come celebrate with us this fall!”
