Expect plenty of Midnight Booms on the Kills' forthcoming world tour in support of said disc's March 18 U.S. / March 10 UK release on Domino. The din of night will be blowing through speakers all over the place when these Kills come around, hopping as they are from continent to continent well into the spring.
