Admired Carlisle sludge-metal trio Manatees - officially the loudest band to ever play a DiScover Club show - are on tour from July 19 alongside Year Of The Man and Holy Roar-signed outfit Throats.
The three-piece have released a split 12" with The Freezing Fog via EyesOfSound, which will be available on the following dates:
July 19 Glasgow Nice N Sleazy's 20 Aberdeen Tunnels 21 Edinburgh Henry's Cellar Bar 22 Lancaster Yorkshire House 23 Leicester Firebug 24 Stoke The Bandstand 25 Leeds Library 26 London Metro 27 Margate Friends to all Nations all-dayer 28 Portsmouth Rifle Club 29 Southend Chinnerys 30 Norwich Queen Charlotte 31 Sheffield Casbah

Sample the band's wares on MySpace, particularly their hella-decent collaboration with Oxbow's Eugene Robinson, 'The Pulp Cut'.
