The dates, which kick off in Cardiff on January 28th and
end in Brighton on February 2nd, will see GAMA BOMB take to the stage with
support from Liverpool crossover skate-thrashers SSS.
“It’s been too long since we toured the UK,” says singer Philly Byrne. “I feel like the UK is the place where we
earned our stripes as a band, doing tours on public transport and sleeping on
floors back in the day. It’s going to be great to come back and catch up with
all the ragers there.”
The announcement comes hot on the heels of GAMA BOMB’s main stage set at the UK’s
Bloodstock Festival last weekend.
“Bloodstock
was a real eye-opener for us,” says Byrne. “We were surprised by many people were
there to see us, who came to the show and hung out after. So naturally we’re
really stoked to have this UK tour coming up so we can do it all again. And
we’re doing it with SSS, who we’ve been friends with since way back.
“It’ll be nice to tour with people who share our interest in dodgy
films and desserts.”
“Touring with GAMA BOMB
has always been interesting,” says SSS singer Foxy. “This time around we will be pushing their
buttons more than ever. It’ll be a busy time come January for SSS. The mix for
the new LP will be surfacing and this tour will see a lot of new stuff being
played live.”
The tour, with a poster created by GAMA BOMB’s long-time design
collaborator Rory McGuigan, promotes
their fourth album The Terror Tapes, released in May on
AFM Records.
