Queen Of The Stone Age have announced that they will hit the road this summer for a North American tour in support of their forthcoming album, In Times New Roman…, due out on June 16 via Matador Records.
The trek will kick off on August 3 in Sterling Heights, MI, and continue on through to Toronto, Pittsburgh, Bridgeport, Philadelphia, Washington and more before wrapping up in the autumn on October 8 in Sacramento, CA.
According to the official press release, the amusingly-titled The End Is Nero tour is is an invitation from the band to "the obscene and the clean, the outcasts and the weirdos, and anyone and everyone in between" to "come celebrate the end of the world, which we hear is 'in a month or two'.
Joining the desert rockers will be a host of special guests set to perform on select dates, including Phantogram, The Armed, Sweden's Viagra Boys and former Savages vocalist Jehnny Beth. The trek will also include a handful of festival appearances, such as Riot Fest, Louder Than Life and Aftershock.
Ticket pre-sales with Citi cardmembers will be available from June 6, 10am local time, with the general sale live from June 9, 10am local time.
