A Heavy Line-Up Across The Country
The tour package brings together four bands spanning different corners of the metal world.
Machine Head, led by Robb Flynn, join as the primary support alongside crossover thrash outfit Iron Reagan and Colorado thrash veterans Havok.
For Killswitch Engage vocalist Jesse Leach, the combination of bands makes the run feel like a proper celebration of heavy music (per press release):
“I’m extremely excited to get back out on the road supporting our newest album ‘This Consequence’!,” says Leach. “We are hitting major cities and bringing along with us an absolutely killer lineup with the legendary Robb Flynn and Machine Head, thrash masters Iron Reagan, and rounded out by the mighty Havok. This is a stacked and powerful crew of bands that will electrify and dominate wherever we roll up to… so LET’S GO!!!!!!”
Continuing The ‘This Consequence’ Era
The tour continues the momentum behind ‘This Consequence’, which has already delivered strong early results for the band, the album produced the single ‘I Believe’, which climbed to No. 3 on rock radio, while also landing Killswitch Engage on the covers of Revolver and Outburn.
More than two decades into their career, the band remain one of the most influential names in metalcore. Since forming in 2000, Killswitch Engage have earned multiple gold and platinum certifications, three Grammy nominations, and nearly three billion global streams.
Through constant touring and genre defining records like ‘Alive Or Just Breathing’, ‘The End of Heartache’ and ‘As Daylight Dies’, the band helped shape modern metalcore into what it is today.
