Voivod add Bristol date to Euro tour

Voivod have been added to the line-up for this year’s Bristol Temples festival.

The Canadian rockers play the event on May 31 at the end of a run of European dates which includes a show at London’s Underworld on May 20.

Voivod released the track We Are Connected this month on 7-inch vinyl. They say: “Here it is folks. See you in Europe soon. We Are Connected tour. We are all very psyched about this trip.”

The track is one half of a split release with Century Media labelmates At The Gates. Voivod’s last full-length studio release was 2013’s Target Earth – their 13th album.
