We recently said that Andrew Jackson Jihad’s forthcoming album Christmas Island has “album of the year written all over it.” And we meant it. It’s not like one of those things we say but don’t mean like “We’ll definitely check out your band’s demo!” or “Goth punk is totally cool and not at all lame!” And to prove we mean it, we’re proud to be sponsoring the band’s forthcoming tour. The tour kicks off in June with Cheap Girls and Dogbreth and then continues in July with Hard Girls. (AJJ have a think for bands with “Girls” in their name.) Check out the dates below. Tickets go on sale this Friday.Listen to a song from Christmas Island here and a song from Hard Girls' forthcoming album A Thousand Surfaces here.Pre-order Christmas Island.And in case you're using a 56k dial up modem and can't load the image…Andrew Jackson Jihad w/ Cheap Girls & Dogbreth:Mon June 2 – Austin, TX – Red 7Tues June 3 – Houston, TX – Fitzgerald’sWeds June 4 – New Orleans, LA – SiberiaThurs June 5 – Jacksonville, FL – Jack RabbitsFri June 6 – Ybor City, FL – Crowbar Ybor CitySat June 7 – Orlando, FL – BackBooth Bar & VenueSun June 8 – Gainesville, FL – High DiveMon June 9 – Atlanta, GA – Masquerade HallWeds June 11 – Richmond, VA – Strange MatterThurs June 12 – Washington, DC – Rock N Roll HotelFri June 13 – Philadelphia, PA – Union TransferSat June 14 – New York, NY – Le Poisson RougeMon June 16 – Cambridge, MA – The SinclairTues June 17 – Buffalo, NY – Waiting RoomWeds June 18 – Cleveland Heights, OH – Grog ShopThurs June 19 – Detroit, MI – Magic StickSun June 22 – St. Louis, MO – FirebirdMon June 23 – Oklahoma City, OK – ConservatoryFri July 4 – Toronto, Ontario – Lee’s Palace (TURF)Sat July 5 – Toronto, Ontario – Toronto Urban Roots Fest (TURF)Andrew Jackson Jihad w/ Hard Girls & Dogbreth:Sat July 13 – Denver, CO – Marquis TheaterTues July 15 – Omaha, NE – The Waiting RoomWeds July 16 – Chicago, IL – The Bottom LoungeThurs July 17 – Rockford, IL – KryptoniteFri July 18 – Minneapolis, MN – 7thSat July 19 – Winnipeg, MB – Pyramid CabaretSun July 20 – Saskatoon, SK – Louis’ University of SaskatoonMon July 21 – Edmonton, AB – Brixx Bar & GrillTues July 22 – Calgary, AB – The PalominoThurs July 24 – Vancouver, BC – Biltmore CabaretFri July 25 – Seattle, WA – El CorazonSat July 26 – Portland, OR – AlhambraMon July 28 – San Francisco, CA – Slim’sTues July 29 – Santa Cruz, CA – Rio TheaterThurs July 31 – San Diego, CA – The IrenicFri August 1 – Phoenix, AZ – Crescent Ballroom/* */
