Haken announce European tour dates in support of “Vector”

Known as one of progressive music’s most exciting bands, the UK progressive metal maestros Haken have announced their much-anticipated fifth studio album and with it an European tour that will take place early next year. This new album, entitled Vector, is due for release on October 26th via InsideOut Music and has been produced by the band themselves and recorded and mixed by Adam “Nolly” Getgood – former bassist of Periphery and mixer/engineer for bands like Cynic, Devin Townsend Project and Intronaut -, with the artwork being handled once again by Blacklake.

As for the tour, the band comments, “We’re thrilled to be bringing our ‘Vector Studies’ to Europe. We had immense fun celebrating our 10 year anniversary across Europe in 2017 with incredible turnouts and warm receptions. This time around we will be focusing on performing tracks from our new album ‘Vector’ along with some live favourites of ours.
