The Sound of Animals Fighting are back, touring w/ Planes Mistaken for Stars

The Sound of Animals Fighting

Experimental post-hardcore supergroup The Sound of Animals Fighting (who lately have been Anthony Green + members of RX Bandits) still only rarely play shows, and they haven’t been active since playing their first-ever East Coast shows in 2014. That’s set to change in 2019. The band posted a teaser on Instagram, and then started announcing 2019 shows.

There’s a NYC show happening March 8 at Terminal 5, and there are some pretty incredible openers lined up for it: post-hardcore vets Planes Mistaken for Stars (who returned in 2016 with their first album in a decade), comparatively newer post-hardcore rippers The Saddest Landscape, and alt-pop artist Lorelei K. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (12/14) at 10 AM with an AmEx presale starting today (12/12) at noon.

Stay tuned for more news. UPDATE: Full tour announced. Some dates are with Planes Mistaken For Stars and others are with The Saddest Landscape, and NYC is the only city where both are billed. These are also the first shows in over a year for both PMFS and TSL. Lorelei K opens all dates. All dates are listed below. Planes Mistaken For Stars also announced a headlining show in Chicago, and all of their dates are listed below too.

No word on a new album or anything. Their last was 2008’s The Ocean and the Sun. Watch the “Chasing Suns” video from the band’s killer live DVD:
