Killswitch Engage have just announced the dates for their first headline tour in support of their just-released new album 'Disarm the Descent.' The album debuted at No. 7 spot on the Billboard Top 200 and at No. 1 on both the Rock Albums Chart and the Hard Music Chart.

Direct support for the tour will come from San Diego metal stars As I Lay Dying. Miss May I and Affiance will round out the package.

Tickets go on sale on April 12 or April 13, depending on the market.

"Everyone in the Killswitch family is excited to get out on our first U.S. headlining tour in support of our new record," vocalist Jesse Leach said. "We are hitting some great cities and have a great mix of songs from every era of Killswitch as well as of course a handful of new ones."

Leach continued, "We look forward to sharing this tour with our old friends and brothers in metal As I Lay Dying. I personally have never had the chance to tour with them and I am looking forward to having such a quality band out with us to give this tour even more fire! We will also be joined by a talented and up-and-coming band Miss May I and a new band we're all excited to see live called Affiance. Thanks to all the U.S. fans for your support! Our live show will be full-on energy with all of us ready to take this to a whole new level."
