Bad Religion has announced that they will return to Europe in August. The band was most recently there in May 2004 previewing material from the then-unreleased The Empire Strikes First. The coming tour will highlight songs from that record as well as classics from the long standing band's extensive catalogue. These dates include the previously announced appearances at the Reading and Leeds festivals.

The band is currently kicking off an extended June tour of California. Bad Religion will play more than a dozen shows in the state this month, with multi-night stays at several venues.
