Support will be provided by FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE, AVERSIONS CROWN and SHADOW OF INTENT. Comments THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER: "We've known WHITECHAPEL since their humble beginnings and have watched them rise to be the important force in heavy music that they are now. It's exciting to team up with them for this co-headlining tour that's sure to decimate venues everywhere this summer! See ya soon!" Adds WHITECHAPEL: "We are excited to be doing a co-headliner with our friends and label mates THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER. To celebrate the ten-year anniversary of 'This Is Exile', we will be playing it as a whole, and BLACK DAHLIA will be playing their new record as a whole as well. It should be a great night of metal."
