Having already (belatedly) marked the 10th birthday of their 2010 second album Écailles De Lune with a special show at Paris' Bataclan venue, French post-black metal outfit Alcest have announced a full European tour to continue the celebrations, including three dates in the UK.
"After the success of our Bataclan show in Paris for the anniversary of Ecailles de Lune we decided to make it a proper tour all over Europe," says frontman Neige. "We can’t wait to play this album for you in its entirety plus selected tracks from all our other albums. We are really excited to announce this anniversary Ecailles de Lune tour in Europe along with The Devil’s Trade. We can’t wait to play for you the songs of this album, which is very special to us, as well as others from the rest of our discography."
