Legendary gothic rock band Christian Death has announced European tour dates. Dubbed the Armageddon Tour, the run will take the band from Spain through Germany, Belgium, Poland, Italy, France, Netherlands and the Czech Republic before concluding in Ireland on 3 June.
Regarding the tour title, Christian Death's leader, Valor Kand, says: "We do not claim to be clairvoyant, just look around. An eye for an eye, a pound for a pound".
Christian Death will be supporting its latest full-length, Evil Becomes Rule (2022), while performing classic tracks from its extensive back catalogue.
With the release of its 17th album, Christian Death shows no signs of faltering or slowing down. The godfathers of gothic/death rock have simultaneously perfected and redefined their signature sound, which has served as a core inspiration for many bands, such as Danzig, Celtic Frost, and Type O Negative.
Evil Becomes Rule isn't merely a musical endeavour but an artistic expression that blends elements of gothic rock, post-punk, and dark pop, cultivating a poetic aesthetic that is certain to continue to influence the next wave of gothic rock. Link
