KEN mode is heading to Europe and the UK this fall, joined by Fange, and kicking off the tour with a set at Amplifest in Porto, PT.

"It will have been 5 years since we've done a proper European tour, and we are excited to bring this new lineup to the mainland. Roadburn was but a warmup for what we're going to unleash. I wish we had more than 3 weeks to do it in... so we'll just have to come back more frequently over the next year to cover more terrain!," says guitarist/vocalist Jesse Matthewson.

Null
Artoffact (2022)

In 2013 it would be difficult to imagine how KEN Mode could surpass their seminal works. The release of Success in 2015 felt like a slight … Read more

Ken Mode

Entrench
Season of Mist (2013)

Ken Mode from Canada have been around for quite a while. The band was formed back in 1999, releasing their debut album, Mongrel, in 2003. Since then three more full-lengths followed (Reprisal, Mennonite and Venerable) until Ken Mode reached their absolute peak with the enthralling Entrench. Listening to the album what seems so surreal is that, even though this is the band’s fifth release, it … Read more
