Sleep Token have announced a string of live dates in mainland Europe for November.

The concerts, which will run from November 9 to 22, will precede the masked metal superstars’ UK arena tour, which starts on November 25.

See the full list of dates below.

Tickets to the European dates go on sale tomorrow (April 30) at 10am CEST.

The band have also announced that their support act for the Europe and UK shows will be pop-metal artist Bilmuri.

Sleep Token comment on social media: “Come November, Europe shall gather in Worship.

“Opening proceedings in Europe, as indeed the United Kingdom, will be the Bilmuri collective.

“Prepare.”

Sleep Token are currently in the US and will start their Teeth Of God North American run tomorrow at the Financial Theatre in Phoenix, Arizona.

The band are promoting their 2023 album Take Me Back To Eden, which was released via Spinefarm.

Metal Hammer gave Take Me Back To Eden a glowing 8/10 review upon release.

Journalist Dannii Leivers wrote: “Combining feeling and sound in a potent, masterful statement, …Eden is Sleep Token’s strongest effort to date.

“And, while they’ll always be Marmite, there’s no question it will delight those already onboard.

“This is a record that not only expands the band’s universe and continues to prod metal’s boundaries, but considers what it means to be human. Otherworldly they may be, but there’s the deepest empathy within.”

Sleep Token have since inked a deal with major label RCA.

The band announced the signing by calling it the start of their “new era”, which they’d previously teased by unveiling new masks in December 2023.

Mask designer Lani Hernadez-David stated in an interview with Metal Hammer that month: “I’m sure they have something in mind that the fans will appreciate greatly.

“There’s definitely a new era coming, but I won’t speak too much on that, because I’m not really clued up on it.”
