Ladytron will assume the role of touring machine for much of the first half of 2007. Their itinerary includes a couple of DJ sets by various band members, a few solo dates, and a massive tour of the UK and Europe with Nine Inch Nails. So much synth it'll hurt your ears!

The band still have release plans while on tour, though. First, 2005's Witching Hour will finally have a full release in Europe, though that's about all the information they've released on their website so far. They will also release a series of remix 12"s. The first is for "Weekend" and features remixes from Virgintears and former Smashing Pumpkin James Iha (or is it current Smashing Pumpkin? We can never tell with Corgan and crew). It will come out digitally and on vinyl in early February. The next remix 12" will be for "Soft Power", and it should be available in March.

Thanks to reader Jaime L. Flores for the tip!
