On the heels of 2016’s The Desaturating Seven, Primus have recently announced a two-month stint of a U.S. tour, joined on the road by heavy metal rockers Mastodon.

On May 6, they’ll kick things off at Red Rocks in Morrison, Colo., and end July 7 at Phoenix’s Comerica Theatre. Tickets for all shows go on sale to the general public this Friday, Feb. 1, with a pre-sale beginning tomorrow with the password “Goblins.” Check out all the dates below and get full ticketing details at Primus’ website.

The Desaturating Seven album was based on a book called The Rainbow Goblins by Ul Del Rico that Primus frontman Les Claypool supposedly used to read to his children. The plot centers on seven goblins who “pull the color out of the world.”

“The dark imagery and beauty of the art struck me immediately, and I thought, ‘This would make good fodder for a piece of music,'” Claypool said in an interview. “The use of color and darkness both in the paintings and the writing was compelling and now, near two decades later, the metaphor of greed, gluttony and deceit vs. unity of the masses is eerily relevant. I brought the notion to the Primus guys and they were all for it. Plus, I figured it’s about time someone brought ‘Goblin Rock’ back to the fold.”

Last night during the Grammy’s, Mastodon took home the Best Metal Performance for “Sultan’s Curse.” The track, which the band cross-promoted with its very own own beer, appeared on Emperor of Sand.
