Just a few days left until we take the stage at the Trusts Arena and open for metal giants Mastodon and Gojira thanks to Storm the Gates. Mothra and Gojira have a well documented and ancient history together, and it seems only right that we play together on the same stage. Head over to our facebook page and share the post, we’ll announce the winner very soon. We will have some brand new extremely limited merch available at the show too, more details soon!
