Battlecross guitarist Hiran Deraniyagala comments on the tour:

“Wow! So stoked to hit the road with all these great bands – In Flames, Demon Hunter, and All Shall Perish. Last year was good to us and looks like next year is even better for Battlecross. This will be a nice break from working on new material and we can’t wait to see some new and old faces! Once again very humbled and honored to be a part of a great tour! See you all soon!”

Vocalist Kyle “Gumby” Gunther adds:
“We hope that fans will come party with us on the Growing Pains tour with Abiotic that starts next week so they can prepare for the heavy metal onslaught that will come their way in February!”

Battlecross recently celebrated 52 straight weeks with the debut of “Man of Stone” at Number 5 on the SiriusXM Liquid Metal Charts, following “Breaking You” and their first single “Push Pull Destroy,” which spent five weeks at Number 1. The channel also premiered the band’s studio version of Pantera’s “Hostile” that thrashed audiences on this summer’s Trespass America Festival. The single for “Hostile” is now available on iTunes. The band’s debut album, Pursuit of Honor, is available now. Listen and order at www.metalblade.com.
