Vice magazine has gone and united the musical offspring of three different countries-- Canada's Crystal Castles, England's These New Puritans, and France's the Teenagers-- for one sure-to-be decadent tour of the UK. And it's all free! Less money for shows means more money to buy you know what.

They're calling it UNITAUR, and it kicks off October 30 in Glasgow. Along the way, these three young bands will cross paths with some special guests, including DJ Mehdi. Oh, and although it's free, sounds like you have to register at the UNITAUR site for passes.

Crystal Castles are also making good on some promises. They've lined up that winter tour of Australia and Japan-- alluded to in our last article about the tour-friendly twosome-- to follow the Vice jaunt. Of course, many of the Japanese dates are waiting confirmation, but we're just so darn fond of honesty and following through on things, we just had to make note.

CC also have some European dates in queue, and hope to tour the U.S. in February. Catch all those dates, plus non-UNITAUR These New Puritans and Teenagers dates, after the jump.
