They may be seasoned world travelers and all, but trouble follows Black Lips no matter where they may roam. So lock up your flats extra tight and keep a watchful eye peeled on any and all oversized spherical structures, United Kingdom, as the Black Lips are headed in your general direction.

The new dates will close a gap between their previously reported U.S. dates (which just wrapped up) and a quick trek to Australia, also filled in by a couple Atlanta area shows with old pals Deerhunter.

If that ain't proof positive of a full-bore British invasion in reverse from these Lips, get a load of this: Vice will press up 250 UK-only white label 7"s for release December 3, featuring Good Bad Not Evil standout "Veni Vidi Vici" on the A-side and "Hippie Hippie Hoorah" on the back.

In other Black Lips news, they've got that split Christmas single with the King Khan & BBQ Show to think about, and if you're willing to part with your e-mail address, you can download Diplo's recent reworking of "Veni Vidi Vici" here (or just stream it at the Lips' MySpace).
