Slint is going on tour (again)
It was inevitable that Slint would tour again, what with the band’s new Spiderland reissue and Lance Bangs-directed documentary, and now those reunion dates have been announced. The slowcore band will play a number of late April/early May dates, including stops in Boston, Cleveland, New York, and Chicago. No West Coast dates have been announced yet, but it’s probably safe to assume those are coming eventually.
A full schedule is below, as is the trailer for that aforementioned documentary, Breadcrumb Trail.
