Monster Truck have announced a UK tour.

The Canadian rockers have confirmed 12 dates, kicking off in Dover on September 29 and wrapping up in Nottingham on October 17. Other stops include Wolverhampton, Oxford, Manchester, Glasgow, Newcastle, Cambridge, London, Brighton, Cardiff and Sheffield. Support will come from Welsh band Those Damn Crows.

Tickets go on sale at 10am on June 10. Bassist-singer Jon Harvey commented:

"HOLY SHIT IS IT EVER GREAT TO ANNOUNCE A TOUR IN THE UK! Beyond excited to rip around with our incredible support Those Damn Crows and party hard in all these amazing cities. Expect a dirty, intense, rock n roll fury machine when this mammoth tour rolls in to your town. BE THERE OR REGRET IT!"

To accompany the announcement, Monster Truck have dropped a relentless rocker of a track called Golden Woman. It also serves as the first preview of their currently unannounced fourth album, and follows their recent signing with new label BMG.

Harvey said: "The idea for Golden Woman came one afternoon as I was fiddling around on a kid's guitar my father had bought my son. He got it at some garage sale and thought it perfect for little hands. I ended up picking it up, putting the strap over my head, and walking around with it all afternoon playing the main riff, and slowly crafting an arrangement. Jer and I then fine-tuned the song, and voila! Inspiration comes from anywhere and everywhere."

He added: "The lyrics were born of my own personal experience with my partner, Simara. She saved me during a very rough time, and I am forever grateful for her, and the mystical revelations that only love can bring. Her hair colour is naturally blonde, so the title of the song is, like all Monster Truck songs, very literal."

The news comes ahead of their main stage performance at this weekend's Download Festival at Donington Park.
