Faith No More announce dates for first U.S. tour in ages

Last fall, Faith No More released their first new music in 17 years, a single called “Motherfucker.” (Way to reannounce yourselves, gents.) The band has been working on a new album as well, and has just quietly announced a string of North American tour dates mostly in venues that will likely sell out in minutes. (Check ‘em below.) We’ll speculate that this run of shows is a precursor to appearances at every major festival in the world in 2015. Another single from the album—which is due in May, and doesn’t have a title yet—will be out March 17. The band performed last year with a Pulp Fiction-inspired “gimp” onstage, who will presumably be on these dates as well. (He also starred in some promotional videos, one of which you can see below.) A pre-sale for these dates starts Wednesday via the band’s website, with a general on-sale Friday.
