We recently reported that Built To Spill would soon be releasing a new album, along with some preliminary tour dates in support of the record. The band has now confirmed a release date of April 21 for Untethered Moon, although it is releasing the vinyl edition three days earlier in support of Record Store Day. In addition, the group also posted the complete schedule for its North American tour, starting in the spring and running through mid-July. The news has been especially well received by indie guitar nerds desperate for a reason to continue arguing that indie rock guitarists can totally play just as well as metal guitarists, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The complete list of tour dates is below.
