Alien Weaponry to debut in North America

Annette Lambly-Robinson Reporter from Whangārei Leader

NZ thrash metal band Alien Weaponry, who are from Waipu, have announced they will be touring North America for the first time, supporting the band Ministry.
The tour starts November 21 in San Francisco, and runs through December 21 in Los Angeles.

The three teenagers, described by American music and youth culture channel Noisey as a band “well on their way to world domination,” got the news just before heading home from Europe.

“We are so excited to get this opportunity,” says lead singer and guitarist Lewis de Jong.
“We have been getting so many emails and comments and messages via social media asking us to come to the USA and Canada, we knew it was going to happen sooner or later, but this is a lot sooner than we expected.”

“Ministry was one of the bands we listened to a lot growing up,” adds drummer Henry de Jong. “So to be on stage with them on our first North American tour is going to be pretty amazing.”
