Sweden’s dark and progressive metal kings Katatonia recently announced that they will return to North America in March and April of 2017 for a headlining tour in support of their latest studio effort, The Fall of Hearts. It has been over three years since as founding member Anders Nyström said so himself:
“We did three North American tours in support for Dead End Kings and it’s been three-and-a-half years since the last one when we toured with Cult of Luna, so having already embraced the new cycle of The Fall of Hearts over here, we are eager to once again cross the Atlantic to continue from where we left off and to reap what we planted over there.”
To continue with the doom landscape, post-rockers Caspian have been invited onto this bill along with the upcoming progressive metal act Uncured. Tickets will go on sale on Friday, December 2nd.
Katatonia will continue to promote The Fall of Hearts on March 17, 2017 with the two-disc special tour edition of the album via Peaceville, that includes live tracks from their performance at the Ancient Theater in Plovdiv Bulgaria back in September 2016. However, on January 20, 2017, they will release a limited edition of the acclaimed The Great Cold Distance to celebrate the album’s tenth anniversary.
