Meshuggah have announced details of a winter European tour.
The run of 15 dates will get underway in Berlin on November 22 and wrap up in Hamburg on December 8. The band’s show in Paris on December 6 will take place at the Bataclan, which is due to reopen in November after last year’s terror attacks.
Support on all dates will be provided by High On Fire, and tickets go on general sale on May 17.
In addition, the band have released a 16-second teaser for their upcoming eighth album, which is expected to launch this autumn via Nuclear Blast. Hear it below.
Last year, guitarist Marten Hagstrom reported that the follow-up to 2012’s Koloss would be “pretty diverse.”
He added: “I’m really attracted by the idea of taking something that’s really household – so fucking generic that it can’t possibly get any more generic. But you do something with it that makes it a new territory. Not rewrite the whole thing, but just tweak it a little.”
Further album details will be revealed in due course.
