JUNIUS ANNOUNCES TOUR DATES WITH SOLSTAFIR

Post-rock quartet JUNIUS, who recently completed a brief headlining tour prior to a performance at South By Southwest, will continue to tour throughout the U.S. later this spring alongside the Icelandic group Solstafir.

Featuring what Pitchfork describes as “the strongest and most sensuous work they’ve done,” the band’s new EP “Days Of The Fallen Sun” — described as a prequel to their 2009 release “The Martyrdom of a Catastrophist,” which explored the controversial theories of scholar Immanuel Velikovsky – commemorates their 10th anniversary. Pick up a copy on vinyl to receive two exclusive digital bonus tracks of previously unreleased remixes from their acclaimed 2011 release “Reports Of The Threshold of Death” HERE.


Praised for their “stunning balance of brutality and beauty” (Rolling Stone), JUNIUS has toured in recent years alongside such notable acts as Katatonia, Alcest, Enslaved, Caspian and Long Distance Calling. Catch them live at these venues:
