Queensryche have announced a UK and European tour for later this year.
They’ll play a total of 19 dates, including club shows and festival sets, kicking off in Berlin on July 25 and bringing the tour to a close at the Turock Festival in Essen, Germany, on August 17.
The shows have been lined up in support of their upcoming studio album The Verdict, which is due to arrive on March 1 via Century Media.
Vocalist Todd La Torre says: “We are very excited that we will touring Europe again! Really looking forward to seeing you all in support of our new album. Thank you all for your embrace and support.”
Queensryche will be joined on the road by Firewind and Mirrorplan.
Speaking about the follow-up to 2015’s Condition Human, guitarist Michael ‘Whip’ Wilton said: “The Verdict is the most metal and the most progressive record we have made in a long time. I couldn't possibly be more excited for everyone to hear this.”
The band previously released the singles Man The Machine and Dark Reverie from the new record.
Prior to their European tour, Queensryche will play shows across the US.
