Lacuna Coil and Fear Factory have announced the “October Dawn” 2023 US tour.
The trek will hit 12 cities that month, kicking off October 13th in Atlanta and running through October 29th in St. Petersburg, Florida. Lions at the Gate will open all dates, and Fear Factory will not be on the bill for the final three shows (God Forbid will support the final two dates).
A Live Nation ticket pre-sale for select dates starts tomorrow (July 25th) at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster using the code LEGEND. Various other pre-sales are ongoing, with general sales beginning Friday (July 28th) at 10 a.m. local time. Alternatively, you can pick up tickets via StubHub, where your purchase is 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s Fan Protect program.
The tour announcement follows the release of Lacuna Coil’s lastest single “Never Dawn” in early June. For the song’s release, the band teamed with board game designer CMON, which originally debuted an instrumental of the song as part of its Zombicide: White Death Kickstarter campaign.
Commented singer Cristina Scabbia on the track: “First presented, in its instrumental version, in the trailer for Zombicide: White Death game, and then in its live version, during our last sold-out show in L.A., we’re so incredibly thrilled to finally unveil the full version of ‘Never Dawn’! This song is a fierce survival journey throughout grotesque and frozen lands, where the power within is the main weapon. Ignite the fire in your heart and enjoy the listening!”
Meanwhile, Fear Factory continue to push ahead following the departure of founding frontman Burton C. Bell in 2020. The band’s current lineup features Italian singer Milo Silvestro.
