Voivod Announce North American Tour Dates
I don’t write about Voivod all the time, but I never regret it when I do. For 30-plus years, the Quebecois outfit have offered a product unlike anyone else, and that thread continues right up Synchro Anarchy, their latest album that they’ll set out to promote with a round of US and Canadian dates this June. Obviously, it’s been a while since they toured, but from where I stand, I can only urge you if you’ve never seen Voivod in-person in any incarnation, to do so. They are a joy. Open your heart and let love in. You will not regret it.
Given the August date listed below in Belgium, it doesn’t seem unreasonable to expect a round of European touring to follow this, so if you’re in that part of the world and up for it, sit tight as that might be on the way, conditions permitting and all that. One way or the other, Voivod make the world a better place. May they continue to do so interminably.
