LACUNA COIL states:
"Transformation is a process and as life happens you need tons of new music! That’s why we are really excited to team up with “Eluveitie” and our buddies in “Infected Rain” for this fantastic tour package. The bill is pretty diverse and interesting and we can’t wait to bring it around Europe. We will play some of our classic songs and introduce some new tunes! We know this tour is going to be rocking, and we know the fans are going to enjoy this as much as we are!"
ELUVEITIE adds:
"Our last few months have been extremely intense, creating “Ategnatos”. Now we simply cannot wait to bring our new songs to the stages and to share our passion, pure fucking metal and heartfelt Celtic mysticism with you all! And all the more we're excited to bring such great bands with us! We feel honoured to team up with our fellows of the heavyweight institution called Lacuna Coil and also with the amazing wizkid that is Infected Rain, whom we've shared festival stages with a few times already!"
