Petrol Girls have announced a UK and European tour which will take place later this year.
The run of 19 shows will get under way with sets at the Reading and Leeds festivals next month. The London outfit will wrap up the run with a set at Vienna’s EKH on October 6.
The band have also revealed that they’ll launch a new EP titled The Future Is Dark on September 14 via Hassle Records which will feature the previously unreleased Survivor. Watch the video below.
The name of the EP was inspired by Rebecca Solnit’s essay Woolf’s Darkness, with vocalist Ren Aldridge explaining: “We wrote the EP right in the middle of the political shit storm that was 2017, and Rebecca Solnit’s writing definitely helped me to not become totally overwhelmed!
“It really helped me to zoom out and to see each political battle as part of a bigger movement with a history of slowly pushing things in a better direction.
“It makes me feel tiny but part of something huge, like when its dark but you look up and there’s loads of stars.”
