Gojira Announce U.S. Headline Dates with Kyng, Deafheaven and Code Orange

2017 is shaping up to be quite a year for Gojira (although what year isn’t good for them, really?). Just yesterday we learned they’ve been tapped to open six dates of Metallica’s massive summer stadium tour, and they’ve already got a series of shows lined up with Opeth, too! Sheesh. Who cares if they didn’t win that Grammy?

Kyng will open the first set of newly announced Gojira headline dates, while Deafheaven and Code Orange will join for the second set. Those shows surround the Opeth run and a couple of big festival appearances in May, with the Metallica gigs coming in August.

Here’s the band’s entire North American schedule as it stands right now through August:
