As one of our 50 most anticipated albums of 2011, The Dodos‘ No Color excited us for the simple reason that the band wanted to make an album that was almost “unlistenable” (which might be hard considering it is The Dodos AND it features Neko Case.) If that was the band’s aim, though, then we’re not sure how serious they were; after all, they just unleashed a storm of tour dates in which to hear said material (via Pitchfork). Starting on March 10th in Reno, NV, Meric Long and Logan Kroeber will take their acclaimed project across the U.S, Canada, and beyond with a string of dates that hits everywhere from Norman, OK to Paris, FR before winding down May 21st in Glasgow, UK.
Check out the full list of dates below and also make sure to head to the band’s official site to peep a video of the No Color sessions that also features a 10-minute drone track. LP #4 hits stores March 15th via Frenchkiss Records.
