Praise the lord, they are coming to AZ! Very good support bands too!

From Metalsucks.net:

That’s right! As many of you have correctly guessed by now, the headliner of the Magical Mystery Tour 2011 we’re co-presenting with Full Metal Jackie is none other than the great Arch Enemy. Yep. We basically pulled the same trick on you that we did the last time we sponsored an Arch Enemy trek. Hey, we did say that this tour has a different line-up, and, technically, we weren’t lying!

And what a line-up it is! As you now know, Arch Enemy will be joined by DevilDriver, Skeletonwitch, and Chthonic. Arch Enemy’s latest, Khaos Legions, might be their strongest album in years, which is saying something, since they’ve never made a bad record; DevilDriver’s recent*Beast is, well, a beast; and while we haven’t gotten to hear any new Skeletonwitch or Chthonic material yet, people in the know assure us that it’s awesome — certainly all their old stuff is!

In other words: These shows are going to be ABSOLUTELY FUCKING INSANE, so make sure you get your ass to a gig!

Get tour dates after the jump! And don’t forget that*Khaos Legions is out now on Century Media.

Man, another October show. Between this, Opeth/Katatonia, Enslaved/Alcest/Ghost, I have some thinking to do. I would love to see them, but those other two tours take precedence.
 
I honestly wouldn't lose sleep over missing this tour. I guess it's because I'm not an Arch Enemy fan, and I can't stand DevilDriver. I'd go to see Skeletonwitch and Chthonic, but Skeletonwitch headline small club tours often enough and Chthonic are hardly an essential band for me either.
