They’ll play 15 shows across the country in February

Black Peaks have announced a 15-date UK tour for February next year.

They’ve lined up the tour to coincide with the launch of their debut album Statues, out on February 26.

Frontman Will Gardener told TeamRock: “What we do is pretty heavy – it goes a lot darker than the songs people have heard so far. We’re huge fans of Meshuggah, Dillinger, Between The Buried And Me and Tool. That’s where we come from.”

Tickets for all shows are now on sale.

They previously issued a video for their track Saviour from the album, which is available for pre-order in digital, signed CD and signed vinyl formats.
