Norwegian black metal avant-gardists Enslaved are proud to announce a co-headline UK/EU tour with Californian sludge-tinged riff masters High On Fire, who are fronted by Matt Pike also of Sleep.

The string of dates set for this autumn will run from late September through to mid-October, and are set to include 14 shows across 7 countries.

Two of the UK show dates - Milton Keynes 06/10 and Leeds 07/10 – will be Enslaved headline shows.

Norwegian avant-garde metallers Enslaved are heading out to conquer new territories!

For the first time since the release of their latest masterpiece “E”, the band will perform their epic new tracks on Japanese and Australian soil throughout August and September, going on to hit the stages of Denmark, Sweden and their home country, Norway, this winter.

For these selected dates, support will come from black metallers Gaahls Wyrd, as well as the new Windir incarnation Vreid. Tickets will go on sale on Friday, May 25th at 9:00 AM.

For the fifth time in their long career, Enslaved have been awarded the “Spellemann Prisen” - considered to be the Norwegian equivalent of the Grammys - as best metal act of the year after the release of their progressive opus “E” in October 2017.

Singer Grutle Kjellson comments:

Legendary vocalist Jon Anderson, YES's singer/songwriter for 35 years along with his successful work with Vangelis, Kitaro, and Milton Nascimento, will be performing special engagements in the UK, Finland and Sweden in August 2013. The shows promise to deliver an exciting mixture of material from Jon Anderson's prolific solo career, collaborations with Vangelis and classic YES songs, along with new compositions, highlighted by humorous and enlightening stories told by Jon.
