Last year, Killswitch Engage had their headlining tour behind 2019 album Atonement cancelled two days in. Now, the metalcore vets have at last rescheduled the run with support from August Burns Red and Light the Torch.

In 2022, the three bands will kick off the new 33-show tour in Pittsburgh, with their itinerary including a pair of Canadian stops early on.

Killswitch Engage, August Burns Red and Light the Torch will first play Montreal's M-Telus on February 1, ahead of a stop at Toronto's Rebel the following evening (February 2).

Blabbermouth ticket presale can currently be accessed using code "KSEBBM2021," with further details available through Killswitch Engage's official website

"We worked very hard to carefully piece this tour back together properly," Killswitch Engage vocalist Jesse Leach shared in a statement. "After the tour was shut down two days in when it started in 2020, we are bringing it back! We are honoured and stoked to have August Burns Red and Howard Jones and the boys in Light the Torch along to make this an 'all killer, no filler' lineup."
