Los Angeles, California - Claus Larsen… Leæther Strip… puts it best. One of the founding fathers of the 1990s industrial scene, launches his latest North American tour on September 20, and says, “So, it's time for yet another North American Tour for Leæther Strip.
“This time it's a Zoth Ommog-era Tour, and I'll be playing the classics from that period, 1989 to 2000. It comes along with Cleopatra Records releasing my old Zoth albums on vinyl. Some of them were never released before on vinyl and I am super excited about that. It really brings new life to something that I am very proud of. I love playing these songs so I hope you will come along and remember the good old days with some harsh energetic classic Industrial. Love Claus”
The NA tour preludes a European outing that takes him through to the end of the year… and beyond.
It also coincides with the October 18 release of Leæther Strip’s latest album All Hallow’s Eve, a dark and delightful new set of recordings featuring all Halloween themed covers.
