Metal Acts Team For 'Road Rage' Tour

Roadrunner Records labelmates Machine Head and Chimaira will co-headline the late summer Road Rage tour. The modern metal club tour will also boast a pair of the label's up-and-coming acts, 3 Inches Of Blood and Trivium.

The tour will kick off Aug. 3 in Cleveland and wrap in mid-September. At deadline, dates were confirmed through an Aug. 25 show in Minneapolis.

Machine Head's latest studio set, "Through the Ashes of Empires," debuted in May at No. 88 on The Billboard 200. Chimaira, which spent much of its spring on the Jagermeister tour with Slipknot, will be out behind last year's "Impossibility of Reason," which debuted at No. 2 on Billboard's Heatseekers chart and No. 117 on The Billboard 200.

3 Inches Of Blood will follow-up last year's Infect set "Battlecry Under a Winter Sun" with its Roadrunner debut, "Advance and Vanquish," on Sept. 28. Trivium is expected to release its as-yet-untitled debut for the label next year as the follow-up to the Lifeforce album "Ember to Inferno."
