Whoop! Mastodon will be back with a new album early next year and will be in the UK for a few shows in October and November as part of the Unholy Alliance tour with Slayer and Trivium. The band's Troy Sanders told Metal Hammer that this album would be more "spacious, melodic and a bit more epic. There are a couple songs that are straight-to-the-point, meat-and-potatoes rock and roll. Then there are a lot of songs that are very lengthy and epic-sounding. It's quite a journey".

27 Oct: Manchester, Arena
28 Oct: Birmingham, NEC
30 Oct: London, Hammersmith Apollo
