To coincide with the news, the band will head for a short run of shows in the UK with support from This Is Turin.

Jonestown formed in 2014 in Brighton, on the south coast of the UK.
Winning the Metal To The Masses 2014 South East division helped propel the band into the studio and self finance their debut Aokigahara, which was released via Siege Music.
The release of Aokigahara resulted in a swathe of media attention, with Metal Hammer magazine touting them as the band to ‘transcend the swarm of killer UK debuts’, describing the album as ‘Gojira and Meshuggah brawling in a dinosaur paddock’ and ‘ballsy, catchy metal that will have fans of everyone from Tesseract to Slipknot grinning ear-to ear and hurtling to the nearest pit’.
