KILLSWITCH ENGAGE have announced a headlining European tour!
Set for September through to December, the tour will see the Massachusetts-based metalcore band touring across mainland Europe and the UK in support of their latest studio album, This Consequence, which was released back in February, via Metal Blade Records.
Support for the UK shows comes from HATEBREED, FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY and DECAPITATED, whilst the mainland European shows feature support from FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY, DECAPITATED, and EMPLOYED TO SERVE. Tickets for the tour are available now and can be purchased here.
Speaking about the tour, frontman Jesse Leach shares, “I am very eager to get to share the stage with top tier bands like DECAPITATED, HATEBREED, FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY, and EMPLOYED TO SERVE! This is a monster of a line up and an opportunity to play some of these new songs as well as a solid mix from our catalogue! Headlining over in Europe and the UK is well overdue as it’s been about 6 years since we last were able to do this! I am certain this will be a tour that will absolutely turn heads and make for some great memories!”
