• Deathstars

Sweden’s infernal five-some postpone their European tour: After a four year live absence, the death glam sensation DEATHSTARS returned to the stage last summer, playing some of the world’s biggest festivals, and now they plan to come back with their upcoming European tour for autumn 2020. Due to delays with the recording process, the band has been forced to postpone the spring tour dates. All tickets purchased will be valid for the new dates and venues.

Singer Whiplasher Bernadotte states: “We regret to inform you this, but because of family matters and a complex period of personal responsibilities, the new DEATHSTARS album will be released post summer 2020 - instead of late spring - and tour will commence just after. Sometimes scheduled darkness isn’t ready for the chaos of reality. Scheduled or not - when the dark does what the dark does best - it’s darkness, even in fall 2020. Get ready!”
