Pitchfork

Their name is more than likely familiar to anyone with a fondness for the rockier side of dance music circa this very moment, but despite their notoriety (due in no small part to famous fans/occasional tourmates/sonic brethren Justice) Midnight Juggernauts still don't have an album in stores in North America or the UK.

All that changes this spring, when the Juggernauts' debut LP, Dystopia, hits UK shelves May 19 on the reactivated Charisma label and comes to North America May 27 on Astralwerks. Man, imagine how big these guys will be when you can actually hear their music outside the confines of the internet and Justice shows! A single for "Shadows", meanwhile, lands in UK shops May 12.

The Juggernauts aren't just bringing their LP beyond their Australian homestead; they're taking themselves on a tour as well. After a few dates around Australia, they'll ship off to the UK and Europe before making their way to North America and eventually visiting Japan with Foals.
