As if Earning Best New Music status from Pitchfork magazine and touring the US and Europe wasn’t enough, The Pains of Being Pure At Heart is now announcing spring tour dates. Check out the dates, along with streams of two new tracks from the band, after the jump.

This major spring tour is set to be the living reincarnation of TPOBPAH’s sophomore album Belong.
