11 Great Things In Metal This Week (11th Dec)

8. Galactic Empire Announce 3 US Shows For January 2017

On Thursday, interstellar metal quintet Galactic Empire announced what will be the first US tour of their careers.

The Star Wars-inspired thrashers-turned-online sensations will be playing a small, three-date trek on the western side of the Atlantic in January, in anticipation for their more fully-fledged UK tour the month after and, eventually, the unleashing of their cosmic debut record.

Rock fans of Cleveland, Ohio will have the privilege of watching the Dark Side's first ever live concert on 5th January, while metal/Star Wars addicts of Pittsburgh and New York will get their fix on the 6th and 7th respectively.

With metal adaptations of John Williams classics like Star Wars' main theme, "The Imperial March", "The Duel of the Fates" and so on all anticipated to be in the group's set, the Rebellion of the USA will soon be surely crushed under the Empire's oppressive boot.
