I TOLD YOU SO! LAMB OF GOD AND GOJIRA WILL TOUR TOGETHER THIS SUMMER. WITH DETHKLOK TOO!

Lamb of God

Gojira 2012

I hate to say “I told you so” I love saying “I told you so,” so please allow me this opportunity to gloat! Last month, via deductive reasoning based on Heavt MTL and Heavy TO festival billing, I concluded that Gojira and Lamb of God would soon announce a summer tour together. And I was right! Suckers!

Lambgoat is now reporting that Lamb of God and Gojira will tour together for a month and a half starting on August 1st, including the two Canadian “Heavy” festival on August 11th and 12th.

But I didn’t get it entirely right. I surmised that of the other bands playing the same festival days as Gojira and LoG, Dethklok would “make no sense stylistically speaking.” Guess I was wrong there. And truth be told, I guess it does make some sense; Dethklok are pretty fucking heavy, and so are Lamb of God and Gojira. Lamb of God and Dethklok will “co-headline” while Gojira support, but I’ve always found the idea of a “co-headline” somewhat ludicrous; whoever plays last is the true headliner.

Anyway, this is a really, really cool tour and I am extremely excitebike about it. Tour dates:
