EMMURE return to Europe with their blistering new record ‘Look At Yourself’ under their belts, a brutal self-examination and observation, balancing hate, bile and perseverance, with the tempered experience of a life spent in pursuit of self-reliance and respect.

All these are excellent reasons why EMMURE are the perfect headline band for the INSD! 2017 tour!
