MENAGE A TROIS ALERT: PRIMITIVE WEAPONS, MARES OF THRACE, AND PILGRIM

What do Primitive Weapon (above) and Mares of Thrace have in common? They’ve both released phenomenal albums this year (The Shadow Gallery and The Pilgrimage, respectively), and I’m dying to see both of them live for the first time. (Vince has seen Primitive Weapons and assures me that they do not disappoint.) And, lucky me!, they’ve just announced a three-way-co-headlining tour with Pilgrim, who Grim Kim says are aces. I’m hard pressed to think of the last time I ever heard of a three-way-co-headlining tour, but hey, it’s the twenty-first century, and these bands are forward thinking. I’m hip. I can hang.

I have little doubt that these shows are gonna be a filthy-good time. Get dates after the jump!
