Massive Attack have announced details of their first headline tour in over five years - which includes dates throughout the UK in January and February .

The band released their fifth album, Heligoland, back in 2010 - and they haven't done a headline tour since. The last time they played a show in the UK, in fact, was over a year ago, at OnBlackheath Festival.

Fans impatient for another full tour are in luck though - they'll be playing an extensive UK tour in January 2016, supported by the Mercury-winning Young Fathers.

See Massive Attack's full UK tour dates below. Tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday 9 October. For tickets and more information, click here.
