NEWS: Post-rockers JUNIUS to headline April European tour

February 13, 2015  •  Leave a Comment
Post-rock outfit JUNIUS has announced a series of headlining dates across western Europe this April surrounding their appearance at The Netherlands' prestigous annual Roadburn Festival (Solstafir, Russian Circles, Anathema), which this year is being curated by Ivar Bjørnson (Enslaved) and Wardruna’s Einar “Kvitrafn” Selvik. The band will kick off their tour in Siegen, Germany on April 9 with support from Brooklyn-based rock trio City of Ships and wrap up two weeks later with a two-date appearance at UK's Hit the Deck Festival (Cancer Bats, While She Sleeps) in Bristol and Nottingham!
 
Consisting of "drifting-yet-driving, asteroid-sized metalgaze anthems" (Decibel), JUNIUS' latest effort "Days of the Fallen Sun" -- a shatteringly divine eight-track EP -- was declared the group's "strongest and most sensuous work" to date by Pitchfork. Acting as a prequel to their 2009 effort "The Martydom of a Catastrophist," the band recorded the EP at the eco-friendly Clinton, Conn.-based Radar Studios with co-producer Will Benoit (Caspian, Constants). The EP marked the first new material from the quartet following 2011's epic "Reports from the Threshold of Death," which Revolver hailed as "lush and melodic, soaring and dreamlike."
 
"Days of the Fallen Sun" is currently available on CD via Prosthetic's webshop athttp://store.prostheticrecords.com/bands/junius or digitally via iTunes, Bandcamp or Amazon MP3! Pick up a copy today and in the meantime listen to the riveting "Forgiving The Cleansing Meteor" streaming below!
