After a lengthy absence of six years since they last visited the shores of North America, gothic metal legends PARADISE LOST will return this October.
Touring in support of their latest studio album release for Nuclear Blast Records, ‘Medusa‘, PARADISE LOST are also celebrating their 30th anniversary. This means they will be pulling out some classic material for live presentation during the trek, songs encompassing the band’s respectable legacy of output.
PARADISE LOST vocalist Nick Holmes says:
“The last time we toured in the USA, was in 2012 on the ‘The Epic Kings And Idols’ tour with Devin Townsend. Six years, and a couple of albums later, we are really pleased to announce that we will finally be heading back to the States for our very own coast to coast headline tour. It’s our 30th anniversary tour, and we will be playing a selection of our best songs from over the years. Looking forward to seeing you all there!“
Joining PARADISE LOST in support roles on the tour will be SÓLSTAFIR and THE ATLAS MOTH. Dates are listed below and tickets go on sale everywhere Friday, July 13th at 10 AM, local time.
