What does this mean?! The punk titans have of course played the full-length in full several times before – most notably when headlining Reading & Leeds in 2013 – but with no upcoming shows scheduled, does this mean they’ve just been playing the album in its entirety for the hell of it? Or have they got something up their sleeves in the future?
