Glorious news for fans of all things heavy metal, as two of the genre's titans are joining forces for an insane tour! Next year, the thrash gods in Kreator and heavy metal titans Sabaton will be joining up to take on North America.

Of the tour, Kreator's Mille Petrozza says, “Hordes! We return back to North America alongside the mighty Sabaton! It’s a true European invasion and we can’t wait to be back! We’re looking forward to sharing this bill with Sabaton and playing our full headline set for Kreator fans old and new."

Sabaton's Par Sundström adds, "We are excited to return to American grounds after the last successful tour. Teaming up with our friends in Kreator, we are able to play larger venues which allows us to bring a bigger production than we ever brought into America."

Currently no support acts have been announced, but the co-headliners have more than enough firepower for any fan of heavy metal. Tickets go on sale Friday Nov. 3 at 10AM local time for all venues.
