KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, DARK TRANQUILLITY: Complete U.S. Tour Details - Dec. 11, 2009

Massachusetts metallers KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, whose critically acclaimed, self-titled album debuted at #7 on the Billboard Top 200 chart earlier this summer, are headed out on the road once again.

Fresh off a summer trek as one of the main-stage attractions of the second annual Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE will take the show on the road for a headline trek across the U.S., which is their first for this album. The tour will begin on February 4 in their home state of Massachusetts and will cover significant ground across the country for seven weeks. To keep things interesting, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE have elected to play smaller venues in a handful of cities in order to create a more intimate setting for their fans.

Joining KILLSWITCH as main support will be Dayton, Ohio's THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, who released their latest album "With Roots Above and Branches Below" via Ferret Music back in May 2009 and immediately followed with a hugely successful stint on last summer's Warped Tour, resulting in a fanbase that has since grown exponentially. Also joining KILLSWITCH on this run will be highly influential metal act DARK TRANQUILLITY, who hail from Gothenburg, Sweden. DARK TRANQUILITY are set to release their new album, "We Are the Void", through Century Media in March 2010.

KILLSWITCH ENGAGE guitarist Adam D. weighed in on the tour, saying, "We are stoked to come back to the U.S. and shred with THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA and DARK TRANQUILLITY. Itâ€™s been a while since we've headlined the States and we're excited to play some new tunes for y'all. This tour is going to be wicked sweet!"

Change title to: Three shitty bands tour the US

no way, dark tranquillity is awesome.

Posted: **Mon Dec 14, 2009 10:52 pm**

Dark Tranquillity IS awesome.

Having seen them three times already, though, there is no need for me to indulge them with my hard earned recession dollars when they can't find the decency to tour with non-faggots.

Posted: **Mon Dec 14, 2009 11:15 pm**

i've only seen them once and that was in 2003 when they toured with Nile and Napalm Death.

Posted: **Fri Dec 18, 2009 1:35 pm**

NOW?

I've never seen a band get heckled more than Devil Wears Prada. They opened at some show I went to a few years ago. I don't remember who the headliner was but I remember that they didn't fit the bill at all. It must have been a brutal death metal band or something. I just remember how hard people were laughing at them during and between songs. I'm the kind of guy who gives bands respect for driving all the way there and setting up their shit but even I LOL'd a bit.

I just googled "devil wears prada faggots" and this came up:
