Idles announce extensive tour, including Dublin and Belfast dates

They're one of the best bands in the world at the moment, and they're getting set for an extensive tour, which will take them to cities throughout the US, Europe and the UK.

For the US leg of their tour, they'll be taking Dublin punk band Fontaines DC as their support act. Idles' frontman Joe Talbot referred to the up-and-coming Irish five-piece as "the best band in the world" at their performance in Ireland two weeks ago.

Idles will play at Empire Music Hall Belfast on April 1, and Vicar Street on April 2.

Tickets go on sale November 9, pre-sale tickets go on sale November 7.

Whatever this is, we promise to maintain it with vigour. Put your loving shoes on and we will do the rest **
