Bay Area metal titans, Machine Head, have announced a massive North American tour alongside Swedish metal icons In Flames, Italian alt-metallers Lacuna Coil, and American metalcore maestros Unearth.
The crushing 5-week jaunt begins in their hometown of Oakland, CA at the legendary Fox Theater, then heads south for a stop at Sick New World Festival, then east, and back across Canada.
To coincide with this gargantuan event, Machine Head have collaborated on a new song called "These Scars Won't Define Us" with all four bands on the tour adding vocals for a Wu Tang Clan-level thrash collaboration. The track comes from their upcoming new album (slated for April release TBD), with the new collab track dropping this Friday, November 15 at midnight.
Tour pre-sale begins today, Tuesday, November 12, at 2 PM, local time.
