The latest round of bands confirmed to storm the stage at NEW ENGLAND METAL & HARDCORE FESTIVAL XV has today been announced. The fresh additions to the brutal three-day event include Alleageon, Alpha & Omega, Born Low, MurderDeathKill andDark Sermon, as well as Baltimore hardcore squad Trapped Under Ice and New Jersey\u2019s renowned explosive tech metal practitioners The Dillinger Escape Plan.<\/p>\n
A tour based around the fest has also been created by MassConcerts, something they\u2019ve done for the past four years. Dubbed Mission Quest to Metal Fest, the trek was formed in order to help a few of the bands get to and from NEMHF this year. This year the tour unifies Expire, Alpha & Omega, Power Trip, Twitching Tongues and Antagonist A.D.on a ten-date assault leading up to their individual performances at the festival. Stated promoter Scott Lee on the formation of this built-in tour: \u201cWe are really proud of this year\u2019s lineup, and to bring these bands together leading up to it. The tour includes Expire who played last year, California powerhouse Alpha & Omega, Power Trip who is an up-and-coming hardcore band from Texas, and Twitching Tongues. We\u2019re also very excited to have Antagonist A.D. from New Zealand; they are the band coming from the farthest away for the fest. Pretty happy to have them; we love putting foreign bands on the bill!\u201d<\/p>\n
