YOB have revealed two exclusive European 25th anniversary concerts; October 19th at EartH Hall in London and October 22nd at SO36 in Berlin. These are in addition to news that the band will co-headline Desertfest Antwerp and headline two nights at Hostsabbat in Oslo, performing distinct sets each night. Tickets for all European shows are on sale now.
The anniversary shows celebrate the catalog, birthed over a quarter of a century, the community that has grown around them, and the undeniable power of connection between band and audience for which YOB’s shows are uniquely known. "The crowd and the band are not two things," says guitarist & vocalis Mike Scheidt. "Over time, playing live has become much less about escape for ourselves and much more about the community of people that have brought us there. Our intention is to offer a space where all of us together can come up for air from the daily struggle. Our music is medicine for us. If it’s that for anyone else, it’s an immense honor.”
Anyone who has attended a YOB concert knows the distinct quality of attention the band commands. To see them live is to surrender completely, awash in pulverizing sound. The sheer mass of the music dislodges consciousness from its habitual patterns; dissolve into YOB and you'll find yourself rewritten upon surfacing.
