Worshippers — soon, you’ll be called upon to gather.

After dropping a new song and a new album release date, Sleep Token has confirmed that they coming back to perform in the United States.

Sleep Token’s official website announced their new single — “Emergence” — on Thursday in the lead up to a new album release on May 9. It is available stream on YouTube and Spotify, as well as other platforms.

To cap this news off, the U.K. heavy metal group announced new tour dates in both Europe and the U.S. They’ll be coming to the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on Wednesday, Sept. 24.

Rumors of a new Sleep Token album began to surface in January: Andy Copping, the head of the Download festival — for which the band was one of the main headliners — told NME that fans could expect new music in 2025. Impericon then-reported that this music, however, was expected to be released in the summer.

Blabbermouth.net states that this new album — Sleep Token’s fourth — will be titled “Even In Arcadia.” The upcoming tour will also bear this name.

Additionally, the band has stated that they intend to use Ticketmaster’s Face Value exchange in order to avoid scalping prices. Tickets will also be mobile only and restricted from transfer.

Sleep Token was formed in 2016 and has since risen to become one of the biggest bands in Britain, according to Blabbermouth. Each of the member’s identities are hidden, and they perform under the guise of followers of the mysterious deity, Sleep.

Tickets for Sleep Token’s “Even In Arcadia” tour will go on sale to the general public on Friday, March 21 at 10 a.m.
