LACUNA COIL Coming Back To U.S. In May

March 13, 2010

Italian rock/metal act LACUNA COIL has announced the following U.S. dates in May:

May 08 - KDJE Edgefest - Arkansas State Fairground
May 14 - KRROfest - Sioux Falls, SD - Wild Water West Park

Commented singer Cristina Scabbia: "We're super-happy to announce we'll be in the United States soon again and there are still a LOT MORE of gigs all around the world to be added and announced soon! I also take the chance to say thank you all for your support through all these years; it means the world to us and we love you all very much!!"

LACUNA COIL is rumored to be planning additional U.S. dates in May with FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH and DROWNING POOL. However, this information has not yet been officially corroborated by an official source.

Fan-filmed video footage of LACUNA COIL's March 2, 2010 performance in Milan, Italy can be viewed below.

Photos of the band's "homecoming" concert at the Alcatraz club are available on the news blog Musica Metal.

According to Musica Metal, LACUNA COIL bassist Marco Coti Zelati was unable to join his bandmates onstage at Milan concert due to an injured shoulder that prevented him from taking part in the group's European tour. Marco's bass parts during the show were played by an anonymous fill-in musician who remained in the background and did not appear on stage with the band. In addition, Cristina Scabbia performed a special version of the song "The Maze", wearing a black evening dress and accompanied only by guitarist Cristiano Migliore.

LACUNA COIL recently released a special double-disc "deluxe edition" of its latest album, "Shallow Life", for the price of a single CD, featuring alternate artwork, a disc full of rare and previously unreleased material (studio, acoustic and live tracks) and an expanded booklet.

LACUNA COIL's European headlining tour featured support from DIRTY LITTLE RABBITS and the gothic rock act DOMMIN. DIRTY LITTLE RABBITS was direct support to LACUNA COIL on seven shows, while DOMMIN took part in the entire tour.
