Finnish death-doom pioneers SWALLOW THE SUN are set to embark on a North American headline tour supporting their forthcoming album, Shining, which drops on October 18th via Century Media Records. The tour features support from HARAKIRI FOR THE SKY, GHOST BATH, and SNAKES OF RUSSIA. Kicking off on February 20th in Detroit, MI, the tour will bring the band's signature blend of despair, beauty, and crushing heaviness to audiences across the continent, wrapping up on March 15th in Chicago, IL.

"What a great line-up we have on this tour. Join the happiest tour of 2025 and secure your tickets immediately," says vocalist Mikko Kotamaki

The tour announcement follows the release of the band's latest single, "What I Have Become", a powerful track that delves into themes of transformation and rebirth. Produced and mixed by Dan Lancaster (Bring Me the Horizon, Muse, Enter Shikari), the song showcases SWALLOW THE SUN at their most intense, both sonically and lyrically. "What I Have Become" is accompanied by a haunting visualizer, now available for viewing.

Shining, produced by Dan Lancaster and mastered by Tony Lindgren at Fascination Street Studios, sees SWALLOW THE SUN exploring new musical territories while staying true to their death-doom roots.

Juha Raivio, the band's guitarist and primary songwriter, reflects on the creation of the album:

"Musically, this album shines like a glacier diamond and has that power and punch that feels like a kick in your face! While lyrically, the album deals with how fearing life will eventually kill you and how melancholy can become your God."

Ahead of the album's release, SWALLOW THE SUN will host an exclusive pre-listening event at the Aleksanterin Teatteri in Helsinki on October 16th. Fans attending this unique gathering will have the opportunity to experience Shining in its entirety, two days before its official release.

Anyone who wishes to attend the event can register and get their tickets via Levykauppa ax from now until Oct 4th. To order and register, visit HERE.

The North American headline tour will give fans the chance to witness SWALLOW THE SUN's new material live, alongside classics from their extensive discography, which spans over two decades.

  • "Innocence Was Long Forgotten"
  • "What I Have Become"

  • "Under The Moon & Sun"
