After crushing ear drums on their self-titled Sub Pop debut last year, Toronto noise rock trio METZ have unveiled an enormous touring itinerary.

Currently traveling through Europe until they hit SXSW in mid-March, the band have let loose plans that'll keep them busy for months to come. The run of shows includes more European dates and stops all over North America.

Though they're not making a trek across the entire country, Canada's not entirely ignored, with dates booked in Montreal, Kingston, Ottawa, Vancouver and Toronto.
