Post-Black Metal phenomenon GAEREA have announced a UK headline tour for September 2026, in support of their upcoming album Loss, out 20 March 2026 via Century Media.
“This is by far one of our most anticipated runs in 2026 under the new album Loss,” the band said. “The UK has been a powerhouse for GAEREA since the very beginning, bringing us some of the most beautiful and intense fans we have. After such a massive reaction at Damnation Festival earlier this year, we knew we had to come back with a bigger production, bigger set and of course, with these new songs from the new era.”
GAEREA are a masked collective born in Porto, Portugal. In under a decade, the band have navigated countless darkened shades of Metal to arrive at their fifth album and Century Media debut, Loss.
The new record builds on GAEREA’s Post-Black Metal past with sharpened sonics and haunting melodies – and, through the emotionally charged din, it remains unmistakably GAEREA.
The band recently released the new single Nomad. “The Nomad is the individual who goes through life at a constant moving pace just to avoid facing oneself,” they said. “Physically drifting, but emotionally running from guilt, self-doubt, and a fear of becoming something to despise. At its core, it’s a confession of alienation. A nomad not by choice, but by self-punishment and inner collapse.”
The band are also confirmed for festivals and shows across summer 2026, including Hellfest, Graspop Metal Meeting and more.
GAEREA will perform Loss in its entirety at the following two exclusive release shows:
– 20 March 2026 – Brussels, Botanique (BE)
– 21 March 2026 – Amsterdam, Melkweg (NL)
