Heavy metal juggernauts DragonForce, Unleash the Archers and Visions of Atlantis recently announced full fledged North American tour dates together. To celebrate the end of a decade, the tour dates open up 2020 quite nicely within the first quarter of the new year. According to The Prp the three heavy metal collectives, “have rolled out the dates for their March North American tour together. DragonForce will continue to support their latest album ‘Extreme Power Metal’ on the trek.”
The British metal band DragonForce recently released their eighth studio album Extreme Power Metal via earMUSIC/Metal Blade/JVC Victor, back in September. The band’s current touring lineup includes Marc Hudson (lead vocals), Sam Totman (lead guitar/backing vocals), Herman Li (lead guitar/backing vocals) and Gee Anzalone (drums/backing vocals).
For Napalm Records’ Unleash the Archers and Visions of Atlantis they will join forces to accompany DragonForce on the newly announced North American tour that will commence in March. The Canadian-based metal band Unleash The Archers consists of Brittany Hayes (clean vocals), Nick Miller (bass), lead guitarists Andrew Kingsley and Grant Truesdell, respectively (guitar/unclean vocals) and Scott Buchanan (drums). Unleash The Archers’ fourth studio album Apex was released back in June 2017.
