Spiritualized announce news of a Pure Phase 30th Anniversary Tour, a special one-off series of UK dates in which the band will perform their seminal second album in full at shows in Glasgow, Manchester, London and Bristol.

Commenting on Pure Phase, J Spaceman says: “I think it’s quite extraordinary and I’d probably say it’s my favourite of the records I’ve made. The construction of it satisfied something in me that likes breaking the rules, not in any kind of grandiose way but there’s something in the process of that which really satisfies me. Each side of the stereo contains a completely separate mix. I checked the masters back and it still sounds like this extraordinary thing. It exists in its own space; it doesn’t sound like anybody else.
