According to theprp, alt-metal band Helmet has announced dates for an upcoming small headlining tour. These dates will bleed into their stint as an opening act for industrial metal band Ministry’s fall 2020 tour. 

The brief headlining tour was announced on July 26 and will feature eight shows. It will commence on September 22 in Indianapolis, IN at the HI-FI Indy & HI-FI Annex and will end on October 2 in Amarillo, TX at the Hoots Pub. The band will also make an appearance at the No Coast Fest 2021 in Texas on October 1. However, no opening act for the alt-metal band’s short tour has been announced.

Helmet will support Ministry on their Industrial Strength fall tour alongside Canadian electro-industrial band Front Line Assembly. The tour will kick off immediately after Helmet’s brief headlining tour on October 3 in Albuquerque, NM at the Sunshine Theatre. Notable tour stops include: October 6 in Minneapolis, MN at the iconic First Avenue, October 14 in Boston, MA at the House of Blues and November 11 in Portland, OR at the historic Roseland Theater. The tour will end on November 3 in Seattle, WA at the Showbox SoDo.

The alt-metal band released their latest project, Dead to the World, in 2016. They released a cover of Gang Of Four’s 1981 song “Into The Ditch” earlier this year in April. The cover will be featured in a compilation in tribute to Gang Of Four’s lead guitarist Andy Gill.
