Goth rock pioneers CHRISTIAN DEATH are heading back across the United States next month, continuing their decades-long legacy of shadowy theatrics and subcultural influence.
Led by VALOR KAND and MAITRI, the band will launch the “Baby Bats Parade” U.S. tour in June 2026, joined by GENE LOVES JEZEBEL, DESCARTES A KANT, and BLACK SEASON WITCH. The run will bring the group through more than 20 cities, blending foundational goth history with newer experimental darkness.
The announcement follows additional festival activity, including a performance at Darker Waves Festival alongside acts such as MORRISSEY and SMASHING PUMPKINS.
