It will then continue into December with shows at University of Wolverhampton at The Halls (December 2) and The Grand Hall at Olympia London (December 3), wrapping up at Brighton Centre on December 4.

The duo will also play three sold-out intimate underplay shows in the UK later this month at Dreamland, Margate (August 24), Guildford's G Live (August 25) and Southampton Guildhall (August 27).
Royal Blood's first LP since 2023's chart-topping Back To The Water Below (41,046 sales, OCC), Dead Company will drop via Warner Records on November 13. Lead track Ten Over Ten was released earlier this week.
“After putting the Royal Blood engine in neutral for a couple of years, we've been building up the revs and are playing faster and harder than ever with this album," said the band. "Written and recorded with the stage in mind, we cannot wait to play it live for years to come.”
Each of their four albums has hit No.1 in the UK, including 2014 debut Royal Blood (734,760 sales), 2017's How Did We Get So Dark? (244,515) and 2021's Typhoons (121,639).
