2013 will see Orange Goblin embark on their biggest touring schedule EVER as they continue to promote the critically acclaimed A Eulogy For The Damned album, released in February 2012 on Candlelight Records.

The touring schedule will kick off with a 15 date UK tour at the end of January and start of February, dates of which are to be announced soon. The band will then head to Australia for the very first time ever to join the Soundwave Festival 2013 (alongside METALLICA, SLAYER, ANTHRAX, LINKIN PARK, GHOST and many more).

There will be a handful of club shows in Australia to coincide with the band’s appearances at Soundwave, more details on those coming very soon.

Directly after this, throughout March and April, the band will embark on a full tour of the USA and Canada, including an appearance at the SXSW Festival in Texas. The Canadian dates will be the first the band has played there EVER. Full dates for this are also to be announced very shortly.

The band will then spend the summer extensively touring Europe and appearing at as many of the summer European festivals as they can squeeze in before heading back to North America and hopefully Central and South America, Asiz, Japan and New Zealand.
