With his highly anticipated new album Spire of Fear arriving August 15 via Bleakhouse, King Yosef has announced the Industrial Worship Tour, a 17-date North American trek featuring fellow boundary-pushing artists Youth Code, Street Sects, and Insula Iscariot. The tour kicks off one day after the album’s release and promises to be one of 2025’s most intense showcases of experimental industrial and hardcore fusion.
A cult favorite in both the industrial and underground hardcore scenes, King Yosef—real name Tayves Yosef Pelletier — has built a reputation on merging savage metallic textures with deeply personal, emotionally raw lyrics. From producing for top hip-hop acts to performing at Roadburn 2024 and touring with the likes of Converge and HEALTH, his evolution into a commanding live force has been meteoric.
With collaborators like Kurt Ballou and Zach Weeks behind the boards at GodCity Studio, and mastering by Alan Douches, Spire of Fear is poised to be King Yosef’s most fully realized work yet. Catch the full list of Industrial Worship Tour dates below. Two additional November shows with Author & Punisher cap off a massive year for King Yosef. Get your tickets here.
