Bang Announce European Tour

bang

Reactivated classic heavy rock trio Bang will begin their first European tour at Roadburn on April 14 in Tilburg, the Netherlands. The Pennsylvania outfit have steadily toured across the US for the last several years, but 2016 marks their first trip abroad either in this incarnation or during their original run in the early-to-mid ’70s. That’s not a small milestone to reach some 45 years after making their self-titled debut, but after a slot at last year’s Psycho California fest, and stints alongside doom legends Pentagram, it seems like they’re certainly up to the task.

The shows are presented by Swamp Booking, and in looking at the poster below, I’m somewhat curious about one of the logos way at the bottom. It’s Svart Records. I’m not sure if Bang are aligned to the Finnish imprint in some way or if Svart has started promoting tours, but if there’s new Bang in the works, either in the form of a new studio record or a release for one of their past outings — the aforementioned self-titled came out through Rise Above a few years back, but I doubt anyone would argue if it showed up again — then you couldn’t say they haven’t found a suitable home. A bit of intrigue, then. I’ll take it.

Tour starts April 14 and ends April 30 at Sound Bay Festival in Lisbon, Portugal. Dates follow here, as seen on the online:
