Having revealed details of his new album – the perversely styled b’lieve i’m goin down – former War On Drugs man Kurt Vile and backing band the Violators will soon bring their lo-fi Americana over here as part of a world tour (11-18 Nov, starts Concorde 2, Brighton) …
He may be busy being schooled in the priesthood (as documented in new film The Redemption Of The Devil) but, as the band’s upcoming tour proves, Eagles Of Death Metal frontman Jesse Hughes clearly still has time to bring his garage rock to the masses (31 Oct-11 Nov, tour starts Beckett University, Leeds) …
From two bands who sound as if they should be making furious rock music, to a man who used to make furious rock music (in Million Dead) but now does wryly earnest, English-accented folk. Frank Turner – who’ll release sixth solo album Positive Songs For Negative People in August – tours this November (14-26 Nov, starts Newcastle University) …
Finally, if all that has whetted your appetite for some genuinely hellish sounds, you can sate it when Marilyn Manson descends on a town near you this winter (19-23 Nov, tour starts Hammersmith Apollo, W6)
