Queens Of The Stone Age Announce The End Is Nero UK Tour

Ahead of their eagerly anticipated headline show on Glastonbury’s Other Stage on Sunday 25th June (annoyingly up against Sir Elton John who headlines the Pyramid at the same time!) and sold out UK shows, Queens Of The Stone Age have announced the details of their The End Is Nero UK and European Arena tour. The Autumn dates will kick off on 4th November at Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome before getting to the UK on 14th November at the AO Arena and London’s O2 Arena on 15th November. The run of dates tour ends on 22nd November at Dublin’s 3Arena.

Queens Of The Stone Age Fan Pre-sale starts today at 10am BST / 11am CEST with public on-sale following Friday 16th June, 10am local time. Main support on all dates comes from The Chats and Deep Tan. Rockshot Magazine went down to check out The Chats at their recent London Roundhouse show. Read Jacqueline Edmot’s review with photos over here.

The group have released a trailer for their upcoming tour which you can check out below:

The End Is Nero tour is an invitation from Joshua Homme, Troy Van Leeuwen, Michael Shuman, Dean Fertita and Jon Theodore to come celebrate the end of the world, which we hear is “in a month or two.” They would like to encourage the obscene and the clean, the outcasts and the weirdos, and anyone and everyone in between to attend, this is where you belong. Leave your judgement at the door, bring anything and everything else.

Queens Of The Stone Age have also released the official music video for their new song, Carnavoyer. Featuring a cameo from frontman Joshua Homme, the video is by Liam Lynch. Matador and Death played by Liam Lynch. Check out the video below:

Britainicana Is Louder That Americana: Westside Cowboy Stampede Through Portsmouth

Lacuna Coil @ Stylus, Leeds (John Hayhurst)

Midweek Metal Mass: Lacuna Coil Blaze Through Leeds Stylus

Italian goth heavyweights Lacuna Coil turn Tuesday into a blackout ritual at Leeds Stylus, backed by a fired-up opening assault from Florida bruisers Nonpoint.

Nonpoint hit the stage like they’ve been itching for it all day. Elias Soriano stalks the mic with clipped precision, spitting hooks and commands in equal measure. Robb Rivera goes straight for the gut behind the kit, while Adam Woloszyn grinds out bass lines with industrial weight. Guitarist’s Jaysin Zeilstra and Rasheed Thomas add bite and distortion, feeding the noise without ever tipping it into clutter. The band sound more drilled-in than on their last UK run — tighter, sharper, still proudly abrasive.
