Irish thrashers GAMA BOMB are sure to please their home fans with the confirmation of their first ever Irish tour.

Gama Bomb will be taking Liverpool thrashers and labelmates SSS on a run of shows in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland this April.

Gama Bomb frontman Philly Byrne comments: "When we're busy gigging and recording everywhere else it's been easy to neglect where we come from, so we're finally going to give our patient Irish fans a chance to see us live without getting on a plane! We talked about having SSS on an Irish tour for a long time, so I'm delighted that it's finally happening. No joke, I think we're going to have a hilarious time with them."

Gama Bomb have also confirmed their first UK tour since the release of their new album, Tales From The Grave In Space.

Philly Byrne comments: "We haven't gigged in the UK since the album was released, so this tour will show us what sort of an impact giving the album away for free has made. We predict it'll be a riot. Of course we're bringing MUTANT along, they're our brothers from another mother and they write songs about supercomputers - why wouldn't we want to hang out with them?"

Gama Bomb frontman Philly Byrne has made a music video for the track 'Slam Anthem', which features on the band's new album.

Byrne comments: "We wanted a video for a long time so I went ahead and made one myself. It's a bit rough round the edges, but the World War 2 propaganda images speak for themselves. Smash the fash!"
