The Jesus Lizard announce Button Factory gig as part of their upcoming European tour

The Jesus Lizard have announced a North American and European tour, including a Dublin date.

The American rock band will play at the Button Factory on January 15, marking its second visit to the venue since 2009. The band is also set to play at the Limelight venue in Belfast on January 14, which will be the bands's first gig in Northern Ireland.

The tour will officially kick off this Autumn and continue into 2025, it will be the band's first tour since 2017.

This announcement includes news of The Jesus Lizard's first album after 26 years of dormancy. The album, entitled Rack, follows the band's 1998 release Blue via Ipecac Recordings.

The rockers have also shared the lead single 'Hide & Seek,' which was completed by a music video depicting all four band members in the recording studio: David Yow, Duane Denison, Mac McNeilly, and David Sims.

Rack will be the band's 7th studio album so far and features 11 tracks.

"There are definitely some references to the past, but it's more as a point of departure: We don't stay there," said Denison. Sims added that the band decided to write a new album simply because "we thought it would be fun".

Tickets for the Dublin show go on sale on July 6 and are available here.
