Creeper confirm new album and 2020 UK tour dates
Here's how fans can access presale tickets for the forthcoming shows.
Southampton punks Creeper have confirmed details of a brand new headline tour alongside news of their highly anticipated sophomore studio album.
The tour kicks off in Leeds on Sunday 12 April 2020, before heading to Glasgow, Manchester, London, Brighton and Birmingham.
The run of dates come ahead of the release of the band’s new album Sex, Death & The Infinite Void, due for release through Roadrunner Records on 22 May 2020.
Creeper’s April 2020 tour dates
12 April 2020 – Wardrobe, Leeds
13 April 2020 – St Lukes, Glasgow
14 April 2020 – Academy2, Manchester
15 April 2020 – Electric Brixton, London
17 April 2020 – Concorde 2, Brighton
18 April 2020 – O2 Institute2 Birmingham
Creeper have released one single from the album so far, Born Cold, which dropped back in November 2019.
Born Cold is the first piece of music the band have released since their infamous gig at London’s KOKO in November 2018.
The final show in support of their debut record Eternity, In Your Arms, frontman Will Gould shocked fans by announcing that the gig would be the “last show we’ll ever do”, paraphrasing David Bowie’s legendary speech at the end of his tour in 1983 where he killed off his Ziggy Stardust alter ego.
However, the band would return a year later with the release of the latest single alongside a sold out headline show at London’s 229 under the guise of Fugitives Of Heaven.
Described as an “emo banger” by DIY, Born Cold was recorded in Los Angeles, produced by Xandy Barry and co-written by the band’s longtime collaborator Neil Kennedy.
Check out the official visuals for the lead single below:
Sex, Death & The Infinite Void is the follow up to Creeper’s debut album Eternity, In Your Arms.
Eternity, In Your Arms was released to great fanfare and critical acclaim in March 2017.
Featuring the singles Suzanne, Hiding With Boys, Black Rain and Misery, the album debuted at No.18 on the Official UK Albums Chart and was included on Kerrang and NME’s best of the year lists.
