Electric Eel Shock will be back this May to deliver their blend of classic rock, punk rock and metal to European fans for their Heavy Metal Black Belt tour. Last year they toured Europe for the first time since 2019 to celebrate their 30th anniversary, during which they also released their album Heavy Metal Black Belt.

This year European fans don’t have to wait as long as they’re back to celebrate that new album with a tour named after it. The European tour will start on the 9th of May, with a show in the United Kingdom’s Aberdeen, and the tour will continue on for almost a full two months with a final show on the 21st of June, in the United Kingdom.

This year’s tour will have multiple stops in the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Spain and Germany with a couple concerts in Denmark, Sweden, Norway and France. A couple dates have been set without the location being announced so keep your eyes on their website.
