Oh-so-hip new-wave dreamboats The Faint will be packing up their keyboards, red ties and sex toys for an extended stay across the pond this spring. The Omaha five-piece will be playing with both Enon and Placebo during their 14-date Euro tour. After their UK jaunt is complete, the band will be storming America with the sweaty, hairy, and occasionally tennis-sweatered Brooklyn indie rockers Les Savy Fav and the charmingly electronic Schneider TM. As we previously reported, the band has recently contributed a new song entitled "Take Me to the Hospital" for the upcoming Saddle Creek compilation, Saddle Creek 50, due on April 8th. Tour dates:
