Here’s a tour to give your spring an added boost of metal music

More and more 2017 tours are getting announced as this year closes out, and the latest is Killswitch Engage and Anthrax. The two metal gangs will join forces for a co-headlining tour next year.

The spring tour, cleverly named the KillThrax tour, will kick off March 29 in Montclair, New Jersey, and continue through a May 7 gig in Boston. For information, head to KillswitchEngage.com and Anthrax.com.

Killswitch Engage and Anthrax will rotate who closes out each concert. Also appearing on this trek are the metal boys of the Devil Wears Prada.

“We are so stoked to tour with thrash legends Anthrax!” Killswitch Engage singer Jesse Leach said in a statement. “We are sure this will bring a powerhouse of a live show with the combination of both bands. This is, hands down, the most excited we’ve been to tour alongside a band in a long while. This will be one you won’t want to miss. KillThrax is coming for you!”
