September 19th, 2013-- The Kills - Jamie Hince and Alison Mosshart will return to the US and Canada  this December for a select run of tour dates including shows in Chicago, Detroit and Toronto, and supporting their friends, Queens of The Stone Age at their arena show in Brooklyn (full tour routing below). The band will play songs from their fourth album Blood Pressures, which was released in 2011 via Domino Records amongst some of their most beloved classics. The album found The Kills delivering their vivid and uniquely gritty post-blues, but with a new level of thoughtfulness and depth not yet explored by the duo. Tinged with wistfulness and vulnerability, Blood Pressures has an enduring sense of intricacy and richness that intensely blends with their ever-compelling songwriting.

Additionally, The Kills have announced the release of a live concert film shot in Paris in 2011. Here is the back story:

On November 12th, 2011, The Kills played the first of two sold out shows at the prestigious L'Olympia Theatre in Paris. Three thousand tickets a night had been sold. After coming off stage at one of the wildest shows of their career, Jamie and Alison turned to each other and said - "we have to film tomorrow night's show!"

Overnight, the call was put out via Facebook, asking if anyone would come and film the second show for them. At sound check the next day, Sunday, November 13th, 2011, a group of friends and fans assembled to capture that night's equally stunning show for posterity.

Director Anita Ribeyrol, along with editors Olivier Aslanian and Sylvain Calves then assembled the footage into the raw, sweat drenched concert movie that The Kills are proud to launch exclusively in partnership with the clothing label, Equipment.

The band is currently in the studio, writing their fifth album.

Tickets for The Kills headlining shows will go on-sale tomorrow, September 20th. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit www.thekills.tv<http://www.thekills.tv>
