Massachusetts face-melters Acaro have been added to the Killswitch Engage Tenth Anniversary Alive or Just Breathing Tour with Shadows Fall.
The band will fill the opening slot for one of 2012's most anticipated tours that will see a Jesse Leach-fronted Killswitch Engage performing their classic Alive or Just Breathing in its entirety. Few bands have what it takes to rise to such an occasion, but Acaro's aggressive brand of melodic and modern thrash will undoubtedly fire up audiences as the band bulldozes a path across the nation.
Acaro is touring in support of their debut, The Disease of Fear - described in these pages by our very own Andar as 'a vile soup of hate-filled, crunchy, well-executed METAL'- which was released on October 2nd through Goomba Music.
The tour kicks off on November 24 at the California Metal Fest 6 and wraps up on December 29 in Clifton Park, NJ. See below for all of the tour dates:
