Concerts: Threshold Announce Two More Netherlands Dates

Posted on Sunday, January 20 @ 06:08:08 UTC by nightowl

UK progressive metalers Threshold will return to the Netherlands in April for two more shows in Helmond and Zoetermeer. This will be the last chance to catch Threshold in Dutch venues before the band perform at ProgPower Europe festival in October.

Threshold Dutch tour dates 2008:

Apr. 18 - Plato, Helmond, Holland
Apr. 19 - Boerderij, Zoetermeer, Holland
Oct. 05 - ProgPower Europe, Baarlo, Holland

Threshold ended their 2007 dates with a sold-out performance to 8,000 fans at Within Temptation's homecoming show in Holland. "It was wonderful to be asked to support Within Temptation," commented vocalist Damian Wilson. "They've achieved so much and put on a spectacular, faultless show. For us it was the perfect end to a great tour, and I feel the beginning of a very positive new era for Threshold."



Singer Damian Wilson recently returned to Threshold following the departure of Andrew McDermott. Wilson will continue touring with the band in 2008 but no decision has yet been made about his involvement on future albums.

After signing with Nuclear Blast last year, Threshold released their eighth studio album, Dead Reckoning, in March 2007. The CD brought the band their best chart success to date in the UK, Germany and Holland, and led to tracks on numerous compilations as well as a major Hollywood soundtrack. The band toured Europe in the autumn with a strong support package featuring Communic, Machine Men, and Serenity, as well as playing many festivals in the UK, US and Europe. Threshold closed the year by releasing its first retrospective, The Best of Threshold - The Ravages of Time.
