Kirk Brandon’s Spear of Destiny release their 14th album – ‘Tontine’, to commerorate the band’s 35-year existence. It coincides with a U.K. tour, kicking off with two nights in Crewe on the 11th & 12th of May, and visiting, North, South, East and West, as well as Scotland and Wales.

Fans can expect to hear the classics like Liberator, Mickey, Rainmaker, and The Wheel, as well as newer tracks like Sputnik, Suicide God, Judas, Lucky Man & Berlin! Berlin!

Often seen as a more melodic counterpart to Kirk’s incendiary ‘Theatre of Hate’, the band nonetheless have a wealth of searing numbers to draw on from their immense back catalogue, and after 35 years, their fire and passion is still a force to be reckoned with.

The album will be released April 6th, on Brandon’s own Eastersnow Recording Company label imprint and will be available on CD, Vinyl and Download.
