Consequence Sound quotes the band’s frontman, Ian McCulloch, as saying, “I’m looking forward to this upcoming tour of America and Toronto. This will be a continuation of the UK tour we did in February/March this year, which was my favorite tour… A new magic ingredient had been added starlight and moonbeams and living angels and demons inside the songs. The musician went on to say, “I love it, and the band love touring America all the time, but the experiences of special night after special night in the UK make me certain we’ll take the shows to a level or two in the United States. See you soon.”
