Shortly after completing their "Sleepless Empire EU/UK Tour", Italian metal icons Lacuna Coil continue their live momentum with the announcement of their "Sleepless Empire US Tour", which is set to start in March 2026. With this run of dates, the band brings their signature dark atmosphere and the emotional intensity of Sleepless Empire to stages across North America:
Lacuna Coil return to the US with special guests Escape The Fate, as well as VOWWS (Mar. 24 – Apr. 13, 2026) and AXTY (Apr. 15 – Apr. 29, 2026). The tour is set to start in New York on March 24th and concludes in Albany on May 1st.
The announcement comes with a corresponding new official video for "Hosting the Shadow", that shows Lacuna Coil in full force during their set at Aftershock festival in October 2025. Joining them on stage is Lamb Of God front-man Randy Blythe, who is featured on the album track.
"Filming the video for 'Hosting The Shadow' at Aftershock, sharing the stage with my family in Lacuna Coil and with Randy Blythe was a truly cathartic experience. Randy is not only an incredible, professional musician, he's also a precious friend and has added so much to our song. I think the video shows clearly the level of emotion and joy we shared both off and onstage - I used that positive energy to give it my all even though I was performing with a fever, ha ha! Please enjoy the video, I truly hope you like it!" - Cristina Scabbia
The track stands out as one of the most powerful moments on Sleepless Empire, and the video captures the raw energy and uncompromising presence of the band on stage.
