The post Boris and Melvins Announce 2023 US Co-Headlining Tour appeared first on Consequence.

Boris and Melvins are teaming up for the “Twins of Evil” 2023 US co-headlining tour.

Dates kick off August 24th in Los Angeles and run through October 14th in San Diego. Each band will perform one of its classic albums in its entirety each night: Heavy Rocks (2002) for Boris and Bullhead for Melvins. Support will be provided by Mr. Phylzzz.

A Live Nation pre-sale for select dates begins Thursday (June 8th) at 10 a.m. local time using the code DISCO via Ticketmaster, while general sales start on Friday (June 9th). Fans can also look for deals or pick up tickets to sold-out gigs via StubHub, where your purchase is 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s Fan Protect program.

“Forty years as the Melvins!!! What better way to celebrate that unlikely milestone than by setting off on the ‘Twins of Evil Tour’ with our friends, Boris,” commented Melvins frontman Buzz Osborne in a press release. “This will be a stone groove!”

Added Boris’ Takeshi: “Could anyone have predicted such an astonishing event, that Boris and the Melvins would tour the entire USA together? Since the mid-1980s, the Melvins have had an enormous influence on artists of all genres not only limited to heavy music, and have brought forth a surge of faithful followers over the years. Needless to say, Boris is just one of these many bands influenced by the mighty Melvins, and we took our name from a song title off of the 1991 album, Bullhead.”

Among the stops is September 16th at the previously announced Desertfest NYC, where both bands will serve as headliners.

Melvins are currently celebrating their 40th anniversary, while Boris are prepping the release of their collaborative album with Uniform, Bright New Disease, due out June 16th.
