Our favourite British duo, The Chemical Brothers, have just announced a selection of dates for their upcoming UK tour later this year. Bearing in mind their summer is busily crammed, involving shows scattered around the world, we are nothing but surprised to receive such good news.
The news comes sweetly after their release, the first since The Darkness That You Fear in 2021, of “No Reason”. Released on the 17th March, they allure us into their unmistakable energy once again. The song clatters with it’s snare and carries you into a twisted pool of melodic intricacies but doesn’t fail to maintain you stable with the ir renowned chemical bass sound. It hasn’t failed to trigger spectators in their latest live shows.
This song comes as preparation for an upcoming album release they are more than ready to drop on us. “It embraces new avenues of discovery and nods to the wider world, while having the feel of a victory lap and retrospective,” mentioned NME in a review of the record. The soon to be released album will be coming as a follow up from their 2019 release of No Geography.
The single has come visually accompanied by a production made by Smith & Lyall. A duo production company who have worked closely with The Chemical Brothers over the years, creating extraordinary and mind blowing creative pieces for the electronic couple.
Their upcoming UK tour is set to kick off on the Thursday, 26th October in Glasgow at the well known OVO Hydro. The journey continues on a short and sweet episode around the country. The following day on the Friday, 27th October, they will be performing at the AO Arena in Manchester. The next gigs will be held at the First Direct Arena in Leeds on the Saturday 28th October, at the 3Arena in Dublin on the 1st of November, at the Utilita Arena in Birmingham on the Friday, 3rd November and will host the grand finale at the O2 Arena in London on the 4th November.
Their summer tour commences this April and will be running through until beginnings of September where they will be visiting a variety of lands including the US, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, the Netherlands, Ireland, Finland, Italy, Romania, Poland, France, Wales, Scotland and England. Let’s hope the break they have given themselves between September and October is enough to regaine energies for another bomb finale week of shows around english territory.
