The Grammy-nominated heavy metallers Machine Head are heading out across North America. Joining them on the road are Swedish metal icons In Flames, Italian metallers Lacuna Coil, and metalcore veterans Unearth in what promises to be the heaviest night you'll ever experience. So warm up your necks and get ready to jump in the pit with Machine Head!

It's been over 20 years since Apocalyptica first put forth their unholy alliance of metal and classical music in the form of debut album Plays Metallica by Four Cellos. The Finnish cello metal band formed with the intention of playing Metallica and other heavy metal band covers, but each subsequent release featured more and more original music until fourth album Reflections announced their fully-fledged status as original artists.

Monsters of metalcore Killswitch Engage are bring their energy to your town! The Massachusetts metalheads have proven they're here to stay, re-emerging almost 10 years after their gold-selling The End of Heartache with new material - and a new (or is it old?) singer. They're staple acts at major rock festivals around the world, so don't miss the chance to see them in a more intimate - and hopefully less muddy - setting when they play near you!
