Their gigs have earned widespread praise, including in The Telegraph (\u201cfelt less like a return to form and more like the start of a new era\u201d), The Skinny (\u201cthe brothers Reid can still conjure the magic that made their band such a revelation 40 years ago\u201d) and Louder Than War (\u201ca band as prophetic, powerful and timeless as they always bloody knew\u201d).<br><br>Next up is a 27-date North American co-headline tour with The Psychedelic Furs before they return to the UK for the following headline shows.
