his fall, SKELETONWITCH will continue to live up to their reputation as one of the hardest-working bands in heavy metal, as they’ve just announced a headlining jaunt throughout the US featuring support from Ghoul and Black Anvil. The tour will kick off in early September and lead directly into another tour with Amon Amarth and Sabaton. Overall, the group will play more than 50 North American shows over a two-month period.
In addition, SKELETONWITCH will spend several weeks overseas this summer, where they will perform dates with Suffocation and Havok in addition to appearances at festivals such as Brutal Assault, and Summer Breeze.
