Everything that is old is new again. Killswitch Engage just announced a slew of fall/winter 2012 dates with Shadows Fall and Acaro. This isn't just going to be a regular Killswitch Engage tour. The band will be celebrating the ten year anniversary of their seminal album, Alive Or Just Breathing by playing it in its entirety on the trek. This was originally announced as the appeal of California Metalfest, and now it looks like the band will be taking that show all across the country.
This is great news for Killswitch fans, as there are many tracks on that album that crush which the band hasn't performed live. It's crazy to think that the "New Wave of American Heavy Metal" is no longer new, and now, in a way, kinda retro. Here is the tour trailer followed by the dates:
