Everyone’s favorite powerhouse Chicago noise rock duo, Djunah, have got a pretty big news day today. First and foremost, they announced a slew of tour dates that’ll find them covering most of the eastern US, with stops in Toronto and Montreal thrown in for good measure. Check the dates on the flyer below. Not to make a regionally-specific reference, but the fact that they’re playing O’Brien’s in Boston is WILD to me and it has me concerned for the structural integrity of the building. Here’s what it looked like when they played Chicago a few months back, as shot by our own Meredith Goldberg.
Last but not least, the band unveiled the video for the track “Seven Winds Of Sekhmet.” I’m not going to pretend I’m anywhere near cultured enough to know what that song title is a reference to, but I can tell you that the video is epic and the wall of sound might melt your face off. The song appears on their forthcoming album Femina Furens, which is due out on March 3rd. Pre-order info is here. In the meantime, check out the video down below the flyer!
