I realize we’re about a week late on covering this tour announcement, but we’re (or at least I’m) getting a bit lazy this month. With a year’s worth of an average of 26 or so posts a week, cut us some slack!

Next year’s rendition of The Metal Alliance Tour is shaping up to be pretty cool, featuring the likes of DevilDriver, The Faceless, Dying Fetus, Job For A Cowboy, 3 Inches Of Blood, Impending Doom, and Wretched. I’ve seen The Faceless, JFAC, and 3IOB live before, and they all deliver. Can’t speak for the rest of the lineup, but I couldn’t imagine they’d be anything less than decent. The tour kicks off in March and makes a pretty decent run, so hopefully everyone who wants to catch this show has an opportunity.
