The four men from reggae punk band SiM (Silence iz Mine) will return to Europe this summer for their Fests & Chaos Tour 2025. Ready to bring their unique blend of nu-metal and post-modern hardcore to their European fans with a healthy mix of festivals and headlining concerts starting from the 5th of June with the Mystic Festival in Poland and ending with the Graspop Metal Meeting on the 22nd of June.

While last year’s Europe tour was themed around the PLAYDEAD album release, this time around they’re touring without a specific promotional purpose. However, that doesn’t mean they haven’t released new music since last year. SiM collaborated with Apex Legends to create a theme song for their ALGS (Apex Legends Global Series) tournament. This led to the creation of their latest single CHAMPiONS.

The band wasn’t just asked to create the song but on the final day of the event on the first of February, they were also asked to perform the song live. Which got the audience pumped up for the match that would determine the best team of the year.

The ALGS finals are not the only exciting event for them this year as they’re also getting ready to celebrate their 20th anniversary in Japan with their 20YEARS TOUR spanning across nine Japanese cities, focusing on a specific album in every one of them.

During the upcoming Europe tour, they will be playing a mixture of festivals and concerts spanning across 7 different countries so that a wide range of European fans can enjoy their music.
