Right after an extensive North America tour in October/November, Swedish black metallers WATAIN will set European stages on fire to present their new opus, The Wild Hunt, live. Those who witnessed the album release show on August 24th in Watain's hometown Uppsala in Sweden will know what to expect - everybody else can be curious about it and shouldn’t miss it.

The band comments: "It will be with the dead of winter that we shall come hunting through Europe again. By then the dry heat of summer will be long gone, moistened by gasoline and tears, ready to explode into a storm of panic and euphoria, death and metal, war and pain, sodomy and lust! So gather yourselves and prepare, forbidden fires and unearthly lights shall illuminate the winter nights..."

The special guests for the tour will be announced soon. Dates include:

December

5 - Manchester, England - Academy 2

6.12.2103 Glasgow, Scotland - Garage

7 - Birmingham, England - The Library @ The Institute
8 - London, England - Electric Ballroom
