Protomartyr released their incendiary fifth album ‘Ultimate Success Today’ in the summer of 2020. Like many artists and bands, they had to cancel their touring due to the pandemic. Now, having just finished their US tour with The Breeder’s Kelley Deal, Protomartyr are pleased to announce their return to our shores for a string of live dates across the UK including the opening night here in Brighton at The Prince Albert on Friday 15th April.
Tickets for the Brighton gig will be available from 10am on Friday 3rd December from HERE. Support at the Brighton concert will come from TRAAMS.
Additionally, Protomartyr have made their ‘Ultimate Success Today’ visual album public. The visual album presents a video for each song, all made during last year’s quarantine except for ‘Processed By The Boys’, and edited together into a seamless short film. The filmmakers responsible for each song’s video are Dominic Ciccodicola, David Allen, Nathan Faustyn, Joseph Howard (with illustrations by drummer Alex Leonard), Trevor Naud, Ashley Armitage, Yoonha Park, and Jeremy Franchi.
Watch all the videos HERE.
