Euroblast Collective, Avocado Booking, InsideOut Music and Century Media Records have teamed up to bring you the finest in contemporary progressive metal with the first instalment of the Euroblast Tour that is presented by Metal Hammer (D), Visions (D), Bode (I), metalitalia.com, metalnews.de, got-djent.com and S7G. Needless to say that the tour will also stop at the renowned Euroblast Festival that is expanding this year as well.
The tour is headlined by JEFF LOOMIS who has been a heavy influence for several generations of young guitarists while keeping a fresh and modern edge to his music. UK’s MONUMENTS and Sweden’s VILDHJARTA will be splitting the position of direct support while US up and coming STEALING AXION will open up the progressive, shred-astic Djent extravaganza.
Let the new generation do the talking today:
MONUMENTS:
„Everyone in the UK and Europe: We (MONUMENTS) are already drooling over the thought of playing the Euroblast tour this October. We can’t wait to come and fuck you.”
VILDHJARTA:
„We were pleasantly surprised by the reception we received on our first European tour, so… let’s do it again! Thall thall.”
STEALING AXION:
„We’ve always dreamed of going to Europe and what better way is there to hang out with our friends over there and do the thing that we love most? This is going to be so awesome!”
