Egypt to Tour Europe Following Desertfest Appearances

egypt

You might recall North Dakotan fuzztoned trio Egypt spent a decent portion of last May on the road in Europe as well. Apparently they were how it went, because after appearing at Desertfest in London and Berlin — one into the other, boom boom — they’re heading out once again for a string of dates. This time, they go supporting their new album, Endless Flight (review here), which was released late in Dec. 2015, as their second long-player and the follow-up to a riff-drenched 2013 split with Wo Fat (review here).

I’m not sure it really needs to be said at this point about American bands skipping over touring in the US and going right to the UK and Europe, where it’s both financially feasible and a more supportive audience. But there. I guess I said it.

No word yet on with whom they’ll be touring, but the dates are posted now. Shows are presented by Total Volume Agency and Eclipse Productions, who announced the tour thusly:

In cooperation with Total Volume Agency we are thrilled to announce Egypt are coming back to Europe. Hailing from Fargo, North Dakota via the dusty plains of ancient Cairo, Eclipse Productions is pleased to introduce you to Egypt.

Fusing all the best parts of this scene we love, Egypt are a band with a lot of strings to their bow. Their acclaimed self-titled debut in particular shows this off but Egypt continue to add to that sound, cranking the noise up to a sludgier ceiling to add even more variety for their first full length ‘Become the Sun’.
