Turns out people did miss Killswitch Engage. Jesse Leach’s return to the band let to Disarm the Descent debuting in the top 10 at Billboard, and on the heels of that, the band have announced a headlining tour this Summer. Support will come from As I Lay Dying, Miss May I and Affiance.
“Everyone in the Killswitch family is excited to go out on our first U.S. headlining tour in support of our new record,” Leach commented. “We are hitting some great cities and have a great mix of songs from every era of Killswitch as well as of course a handful of new ones.
We look forward to sharing this tour with our old friends and brothers in metal As I Lay Dying. I personally have never had the chance to tour with them and I am looking forward to having such a quality band out with us to give this tour even more fire! We will also be joined by a talented and up-and-coming band Miss May I and a new band we’re all excited to see live called Affiance. Thanks to all the U.S. fans for your support! Our live show will be full-on energy with all of us ready to take this to a whole new level.”
