Japanese noise rock greats Melt-Banana were supposed to tour the US this spring with IGORRR and VOWWS, but that ended up not happening. Good news: they’ll now be over this fall, touring with a whole bunch of great bands, on various dates, including Deaf Club, Wand, Psychic Graveyard, Ed Schrader’s Music Beat, No Age, Dream_Mega, and more. The tour kicks off in Sacramento, CA on September 30 and makes its way around the country before wrapping up in Fresno, CA on November 13. All dates are listed below.

The NYC date is October 21 and is currently listed as “Queens TBA” (Knockdown Center? TV Eye?). Stay tuned for details on that show.

Melt-Banana did make it to the US this spring for an appearance at Austin’s Oblivion Access festival, and you can check out pics from that show below.
