MACHINE HEAD, TRIVIUM, DRAGONFORCE and ARCH ENEMY will team up for the “The Black Crusade” European tour in November/December.
Commented MACHINE HEAD frontman Robb Flynn: “We’re so goddamned jacked-up to do this! It’s going to be completely fucking sick! We cannot wait to plunder all of the vodka in all your towns and see our beer-breathed brethren pillaging alongside us. We’re stoked to be sharing stages and brown-eyes with our boys in TRIVIUM once again and are looking forward to hanging out with all the other bands.”
TRIVIUM’s Matt Heafy added: “It’s going to be a really amazing show for the fans. Rarely is there a tour where every single band is such a dominating force in the music world. MACHINE HEAD have always been revolutionary in bringing monumental albums every damn time they put one out; DRAGONFORCE are sweeping (literally and guitar-atively) the entire world with their lightning fast precision and incredibly memorable tracks; and ARCH ENEMY are queen and kings of a metal capable of being so brutal and heavy, yet so melodic and catchy. It’s great to look at this lineup purely as a music fan and know that us Triviums are gonna have a fantastic time ourselves, being able to watch some of our favourite bands who also happen to be some of our best friends in the metal world.”
