Chimaira Headlining Blue Collar Brawler Tour

Cleveland's Chimaira will be busting out of their native confines and taking a break from writing their sixth album to headline the Blue Collar Brawler Tour, with Impending Doom, Daath and This or the Apocalypse will ride sidecar for 10 of the Chimaira tour dates in 10 working class cities, such as Pittsburgh and Detroit. It will be the band's last road trek for a bit, while they retreat again to work on album number six.

Chimaira also confirmed that they will play Chimaira Christmas 11 -- their eleventh annual holiday show -- which will take place on Dec. 30 at the Cleveland House of Blues. Ohio Sky will also perform.
