Fans in Canada and select cities in the northern part of the U.S. will finally have a chance to see what reviewers have called “The Best Metal Tour of the Year,” when co-headliners Anthrax and Testament, joined by Death Angel, kick off a late-summer trek on September 14. Starting in Portland, OR, the bands will work their way north, cross into Canada, and play all of the major Canadian cities before wrapping up in Montclair, NJ on October 5. Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 1.<\/p>\n

Things have gone so well, in fact, that it’s made sense to add a third leg with this exact same line up.\u00a0 All three bands are excited to take this show into new territory with a trek across Canada, and a few spots in the US we missed last time around. And this time, Testament will be armed with a brand new album with music that we’re eager to share with everyone. Hope to see you out there!”<\/p>\n “We’ve been tight with the guys in Testament for a long, long time, and had a great time touring with them before,” added Anthrax’s drummer Charlie Benante. \u00a0“And all of us in Anthrax are big Death Angel fans, so this is going to be a monster of a great time, for us and for the fans.”<\/p>\n Said Testament’s frontman Chuck Billy, “It’s good to see that metal is alive in 2012 and the fans want a third leg of the Anthrax, Testament, Death Angel tour. Don’t fucking miss it! \u00a0Metal Forever!”<\/p>\n With more dates to be confirmed, the Anthrax\/Testament\/Death Angel tour are as follows:<\/p>\n SEPTEMBER<\/strong><\/p>\n 14 \u00a0 Ace of Spades, Sacramento, CA OCTOBER<\/strong><\/p>\n 2 \u00a0 Metropolis, Montreal, QC Fans in Canada and select cities in the northern part of the U.S. will finally have a chance to see what reviewers have called “The Best Metal Tour of the Year,” when co-headliners Anthrax and Testament, joined by Death Angel, kick off a late-summer trek on September 14.
