It’s hard to believe Alien Ant Farm’s breakthrough album ‘ANThology’ hit the scene 15 years ago. In 2016 AAF are going to celebrate this by touring the UK and playing the album in full. Support comes from cult nu-grunge band InMe and one of the hottest bands of the moment -The Dirty Youth.

Vocalist Dryden Mitchell had this to say about the tour:
“It’s always a great time when we get to tour overseas, but being able to play the “ANThology” record from front to back, in countries that helped give us our first #1 singles, is going to be extra special. We’ve waited 15 years to do this and we will not disappoint!”
You may remember AAF climbing the charts in 2001 with their cover of Michael Jackson’s ‘Smooth Criminal’ as well as hit singles such as ‘Movies’ and ‘Wish’. The Riverside rockers are still recording today and released their latest album ‘Always And Forever’ in February this year.
Got my tickets for Newcastle! Still got my 15 year old aaf hoodie to wear 😀
