14 New Rock + Metal Tours Announced This Past Week

While there weren’t as many tours that were announced on this holiday week, there are still plenty of quality rock and metal tours that you’ll want to see.

Let’s start with Asking Alexandria, who have put together another great touring package with Memphis May Fire, The Word Alive and Archers that will travel the country later this year. You’ve also got new dates for veteran metallers Soulfly, who will team up with Eyehategod, Mutilation Barbecue and Skinflint this fall.

If you prefer something more on the alternative side, the original lineup of Jane’s Addiction are back together. They’ll be playing shows with fellow ’80s alt-rock mainstays Love and Rockets this year. And speaking of the ’80s, W.A.S.P. are ready to rock you with support from Death Angel and Unto Others.

Those are just some of the newly announced tours. There’s a little something for everyone spanning the scale from heavily aggressive metal through more melodic alternative rock. Check out the newly announced tours, festivals and special one-off performances announced this past week below.
