Wellington rock veterans Shihad will make the trip over the Tasman this July, with the band announcing four Western Australia shows.
The dates mark the band's first performances in Australia since 2014, when the lads toured in support of their studio album 'FVEY', which we described as, "worthy of becoming something special to the current generation just like ‘The General Electric’ was to the one before it."
Joined by locals Storytime, Shihad's upcoming tour also coincides with the 20th anniversary of their self-titled (the fish) album. Accordingly, the aforementioned full-length was recently re-released as a remastered version, which is now available via iTunes.
Tickets are on sale now via Oztix.
*UPDATE [28/4]:
Shihad have also announced a run of shows around the rest of Australia. Joining the group is Adelaide's Grenadiers.
