Fresh off a sold out Soundwave Festival and Australian tour, hard rock heroes RED FANG have announced a six week long European summer tour including numerous festival appearances. The tour kicks off May 31st at Spain’s Sonisphere Festival and includes special appearances at Hellfest, Graspop and previously uncharted territories. A complete listing of dates is listed below.
This marks the third time the band has set foot across the pond since the release of 2011’s critically acclaimed Murder The Mountains. Drummer John Sherman commented on the upcoming run:
„We are super excited to get back to Europe this summer and hit some places we’ve always wanted to play, but for one reason or another were not able to – Ireland, Turkey, Iceland, and finally Poland! And to be a part of some of the bigger festivals with huge names like IRON MAIDEN is just mind blowing. It’s gonna be a hectic, busy, sleepless, kickass 6 week party!”
RED FANG recently blessed the world with a new video for their infectious song „Dirt Wizard’. The video, another collaboration with Whitey McConnaughy, chronicles the foursome as they tour throughout Europe. Additionally, the band recently released a new single, „Crows in Swine”, which saw its official release as a split 7″ with label-mates ASG via Relapse Records. The 7″ is available for purchase here.
RED FANG have begun writing their highly anticipated follow-up to 2011’s Murder The Mountains and plan to enter the studio in the near future. Details will be announced shortly.
