Periphery have confirmed a European tour at the end of the year in support of twin albums Juggernaut: Alpha and Juggernaut: Omega.
The four-week run kicks off with six UK shows in November, with Veil Of Maya supporting.
Periphery guitarist Misha Mansoor says: “We’re beyond excited to announce that we’re finally coming back for a proper European headlining tour. Our schedule and opportunities have just worked out to where we haven’t done one in years, and this is well overdue.
“We’re bringing our good buddies in Veil Of Maya, so it’s going to be a special one.”
In January drummer Matt Halpern explained the reason for splitting Juggernaut, saying: “It’s very detailed and dense in terms of character development, peaks and valleys, climaxes and resolutions.”
But he added: “Although the albums are split in two physically, the story is only complete when the albums are digested consecutively. This allows the listener to recognise and hear the lyrical and musical overlapping themes, foreshadowing, and connected ideas.”
Tickets are on sale now.
