The Word Alive announce Euro tour

The Word Alive are set to play a run of shows in Europe and the UK.

The band are currently touring North America, but will play a run of European dates before hitting the UK for the Slam Dunk festivals and a headline London show.

The Word Alive will release their fourth album Dark Matter on March 18.

Frontman Tyler ‘Telle’ Smith said: “Dark Matter is the result of our most in-depth writing and recording session we’ve done, and is something we consider to be our most dynamic and expansive album to date.

“This record completely defines and expresses who we are, and where we are going, taking the listener to the darkest and most honest places our band has dared to venture.”

The band also issued their Sellout video last week.

Dark Matter is available for pre-order in a variety of bundle packs.
