Solace Announce European Tour Dates
This Fall, Solace have been in the studio making their awaited fifth full-length. Earlier in the year, the band reissued their 2000 debut, Further (discussed here), for its 25th anniversary, toured the West Coast around a tear-your-face-off set at Planet Desert Rock Weekend V (review here) in Las Vegas, and were struck by the loss of founding vocalist Jason Limpatsis around the same time. It’s been a busy year for the long-running New Jersey-based stoner metallers, in other words.
In addition to that next record, to which I’m very much looking forward, coming out as their first release on Magnetic Eye, there’s this quick run of European shows alongside Hermano, with John Garcia, “Nice-Guy Dave” Angstrom, Dandy Brown, and so on. It’s not listed below, but they mention as well the prior confirmation for Desertfest London 2026 on or about May 15, and I can’t help but wonder if a Desertfest Berlin slot isn’t still to be revealed. We’ll see, I guess.
Of course, I’m wondering if the album will be out by then. Record in April, tour in May? Tour in May, record in June? Tour in May, record in my inbox early December? I do definitely feel a strong preference for the latter scenario, but whenever it comes, it’ll be welcome, and I’d rather have Solace take their time.
From social media:
SOLACE EURO-TOUR 2026!!!
We’re super stoked to announce that we’re FINALLY coming back to mainland Europe in 2026! And we’re kicking it all of in righteous fashion by supporting the mighty HERMANO! More dates to be announced in the coming weeks. And don’t forget we’ll be bringing the Dirt Metal to Desertfest London and can’t wait to see all our UK family 🤘🤘💥💪☠️🎸🎵
