The Freeks to Tour Europe in Feb./March; New Album out Now
Los Angeles five-piece heavy rock punkstompers The Freeks released their third album, Shattered (review here), less than a week ago, and yet here they are wasting no time announcing their intention to support the offering by teaming up with the booking wing of their label, Italy’s Heavy Psych Sounds, in order to tour Europe from the end of February through much of March. Though the actual routing, i.e. cities and venues, has yet to be revealed, the poster gives the span from Feb. 28 through March 20, and the label has said that they’ll hit Italy, Switzerland, Germany, France and Austria on their way. If other recent goings are anything to judge by, I’d expect multiple dates throughout Germany and Italy as well. Maybe even France.
They’ll be joined by Dutch riffers Komatsu, who released their new album, Recipe for Murder One, in Sept. on Argonauta Records.
More to come once the actual dates and such show up, but the poster’s cool until then and if you haven’t checked out Shattered yet, the full stream is below:
HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS Records & Booking is incredibly happy to announce the European tour of ***The Freeks***
The US riffers will be supported for the entire tour by another great band Komatsu from the Netherlands.
DATES: 28.02.2017 to 20.03.2017

Prepare for an unprecedented earthquake, world! Los Angeles explosive rock’n’rollers THE FREEKS released their new album “Shattered” November 11th on Heavy Psych Sounds.
With an inextinguishable fire, Californian five-piece THE FREEKS brilliantly fuses high-octane rock’n’roll, the raw energy of punk rock and hints of psychedelic bizarrerie. Just as if The Stooges had met Hawkwind. With former members of Fu Manchu and Nebula in its ranks, the band is anything but a newbie in the US rock scene. After two albums (“The Freeks” in 2008 and the widely acclaimed “Full On” in 2013), THE FREEKS are back with a blazing new effort released on Heavy Psych Sounds on November 11.
