The Afghan Whigs are days away from delivering their new In Spades LP, and in looking to the months ahead, the band have mapped out an accompanying North American tour behind the disc.

A tour of Europe this spring/summer will give way to 28 dates in North America starting in September. While they'll primarily stay within the United States, three dates in Canada have been included in the itinerary.

The band will first play Montreal's Theatre Fairmount on September 18 before a night at Toronto's Opera House on September 19. Out west, they'll find themselves at Vancouver's Rickshaw Theatre on October 17.

Support on all dates will come from Har Mar Superstar, with tickets going on sale this Friday (May 5). Further information on ticketing packages can be found here.

In Spades arrives Friday (May 5) through Sub Pop. Read through the band's newly announced North American tour dates below.
