Clues get ready to tour, release free and exclusive mp3

Montreal-based Clues have announced a UK tour for this October. It is quite short and sweet and doesn't visit Wales or Northern Ireland, but there's still a whole seven dates for you to choose from, so don't be bitchin'.

The tour opens in the most amazing way imaginable - on our very own stage at the In The City Festival at the marvellous Deaf Institute in Manchester. What more could you want?

Here are those dates in full:

Oct 19: Manchester, Drowned In Sound Stage @ In The City Festival @ The Deaf Institute
Oct 20: Sheffield, The Harley
Oct 21: Edinburgh, The Electric Circus
Oct 22: Dublin, Whelans
Oct 23: Liverpool, Korova
Oct 24: Bristol, Start The Bus
Oct 25: London, The Lexington

Plus, there's the video for 'Haarp' currently floating around the interweb. Watch it below:

As a sort-of promotional tool for the band and tour, they've giving away a free mp3 of 'Remember Severed Head', something not previously available. Get a taste of Clues by clicking on this hyperlink, the rest is simple. The music is almost as good as the title, honest. It would be a suitable soundtrack to scene of a morbidly obese man plodding down the street to his untimely death, crushed by a stretch Hummer driven by a midget.
