This is what happens when there is only one major touring festival in the summer. All the other bands team up for "mega tours". First there is Summer Slaughter, and now the promoters of that tour are branching out to a second nation wide tour, the Thrash and Burn Tour.
Headlined by DARKEST HOUR, the tour begins on July 29. Support on the trek will come from PARKWAY DRIVE, MISERY SIGNALS, WINDS OF PLAGUE, STICK TO YOUR GUNS, ARSIS, LIGHT THIS CITY, ARSONISTS GET ALL THE GIRLS and AFTER THE BURIAL. Special guests scheduled to appear on select dates include SUICIDE SILENCE, AS BLOOD RUNS BLACK, EMMURE, VEIL OF MAYA, BROTHER VON DOOM and others to be announced later.
