10TH ANNIVERSARY HEADLINE TOUR ANNOUNCED FOR NOVEMBER 2025
Having established their name as one of the finest in modern British metal, The Raven Age celebrate their 10th anniversary in 2025 and to mark the occasion the band have announced a UK headline tour for November 2025 along with releasing the brand new single ‘Hangman’ today.
The heavy yet melodic ‘Hangman’ examines fate as a thunderous rhythm paves the way for a huge anthemic chorus, wide-reaching vocals and an epic guitar solo in another grandiose display of dynamic metal from The Raven Age.
Regarding the single guitarist George Harris says, “‘Hangman’ is a song I’m really looking forward to playing live. It’s heavy, but groovy and open — a super fun one to jam. To be honest, I wrote the riff when I should’ve been practising. I had a metronome going with the intention of working on some scales and other bullshit, but I ended up grooving along to this riff all afternoon and the rest of the song followed. Way more productive if you ask me!”
The band debuted the single at Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium yesterday and fans can expect to hear it on their extensive list of forthcoming shows across the UK and Europe this year. Their shows include a UK and Ireland run supporting Iron Maiden which starts tomorrow, alongside further summer festival shows and the new headline tour.
The November headline tour titled The Monarchy Tour – A Decade Of The Raven King will include six dates starting in Southampton on November 25th and finishing at London’s Islington Assembly Hall on November 30th. The band will be supported on all dates by Empyre. Tickets go on sale at 10am on Weds June 25th and will be available via http://myticket.co.uk/artists/the-raven-age
Regarding the tour frontman Matt James says, “This tour is a celebration of the last ten years of everything Raven Age. We feel this is a pretty important mile stone for us as a band and we want to mark it by doing something truly special with our incredible fans. We can’t wait for what’s in store!!”
