Lightning Bolt, Rhode Island's best explosively frantic noise-rock duo, are planning to tour the U.S. this spring. Brian Chippendale and Brian Gibson's last record was 2009's excellent Earthly Delights (Load). No word if they have something new in the works, but it's always a treat to catch one of their absolutely bonkers gigs. Full dates below.
