5 labels have been brawling to sign PRIMAL SCREAM in the USA. They've gone for Epic/Sony (not a huge leap considering Creation was part of Sony).
This week they kick off their first UK tour since the 'XTRMNTR' shows two years ago. They just finished a sold-out 2 week tour of Japan, where they apparently "blew away the audiences with high octane cuts from their acclaimed album, 'EVIL HEAT'," according to their press monkeys anyway. The tour dates are..
