Belarus’s 3 princes of melancholy, doom, and gloom Molchat Doma have announced that they will be traversing the globe on their ambitious New Wave Sadness tour, starting this autumn. Kicking things off in Minsk, they’ll be making pit stops in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Germany, the Netherlands, Estonia, Latvia, France, Denmark, Belgium, the UK, and Ireland in November. The following month, their European tour will see them in the Czech Republic, Austria, Poland, and Russia.
They’ll make their way across the pond to North America for Spring 2022, beginning in Phoenix on 22 April, making their way through Austin, Nashville, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, Montreal, Boston, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, DC, Denver, Salt Lake City, Seattle, Vancouver, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles and more.
Molchat Doma will then wrap up the tour in Barcelona in June of 2022 at Primavera Sound.
Tickets for all North American dates of the tour go on sale Friday, 11th of June 2021, at 10 AM local time. Global citizens, make your way to the ticket offerings here.
Molchat Doma’s Monument was one of our picks for Post-Punk.com’s Best of 2020 year-end list. Additionally, we spoke to the band, along with their friends in Ploho, about the current wave of post-punk acts from former Soviet Countries and the CIS. Monument is out now via Sacred Bones Records.
