Domkraft Announce West Coast Tour with Howling Giant
Yes, I know this was announced last week. I don’t care if it was announced last year — it’s friggin’ Domkraft and friggin’ Howling Giant touring together. Can you imagine the banger show that must be? Howling Giant, who I think will be playing as a four-piece again, hitting the road after recording their next full-length (oh I’m so nervous for it), and Domkraft making the most of the US visa that brought them Stateside this past Fall to be at Desertfest New York (review here), which they just about rolled into a little ball and tucked into their pocket to save for later. They were incredible.
Getting this post ready yesterday, I put on 2023’s Sonic Moons (review here) again and at the risk of spoiling your own revisit for you, yup, it still destroys. Their massive lurch and Howling Giant‘s careening, hooky uptempo shove should mesh well, and one hopes a second tour puts Domkraft somewhere in the realm of breaking even as regards the cost of artist visas. If you go, buy a shirt. Buy 10.
And I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention that Howling Giant are in my neighborhood (literally) this week for a show. I can’t attend as I’m traveling, but I’m sending The Patient Mrs. for a rare guest review. I’ll post it next week probably. Will be fun. There’s precedent, but I’ll have more on that later.
Here are Domkraft and Howling Giant dates, as per the announcement on socials:
