GAMA BOMB ANNOUNCE UK TOUR DATES, DISCUSS NEXT ALBUM

Irish thrashers GAMA BOMB have confirmed dates for a UK tour, which kicks off on May 8th in London.

The band are due to do a last run of shows in support of their latest album, TALES FROM THE GRAVE IN SPACE, before taking a break to work on new material.

GAMA BOMB frontman PHILLY BYRNE comments:

"We'll be hitting the UK for a string of dates in May which will wrap up our touring for the Tales from the Grave in Space album.  Once we've struck the last chord of this tour, we'll be retreating to Ireland to begin really digging into work on writing our new, as-yet untitled album.  We've already written some bits and pieces and are looking forward to taking it to some demented new places, and are certain it's going to be a radical step in a new direction for us - while still being totally thrash, totally blistering and totally GAMA BOMB.

"The last year has been amazing, making a bit of music history; touring the US for the first time; drinking many exotic drinks...  This experience has given us a taste for adventure that's going to come across on our new material.  Before then, however, we invite all UK GAMA BOMB fans to join us in raising a glass to send off Tales in style."
