90's alt-metal giants SYSTEM OF A DOWN and DEFTONES have joined forces for a two-week summer tour beginning in August.
Fans of both acts are rejoicing at the news. System of Down had been on hiatus since 2006 with the exception of a handful of West Coast shows played last year. Their most recent record release dates back to 2005's Mezmerize and Hypnotize, but sadly, no mention has been made (as of yet) of a new album on the horizon. Regardless of new music, System of a Down's return to touring is definitely a welcome one.
The Deftones, however, are already in the midst of making their seventh record with producer Nick Raskulinecz (who also produced their last album, 2010's Diamond Eyes.)
Check out the tour dates below:
8/02 Philadelphia, PA at Susquehanna Bank Center
8/04 Holmdel, NJ at PNC Bank Arts Center
8/05 Wantagh, NY at Nikon at Jones Beach Theater
8/07 Washington, DC at Verizon Center Arena
8/09 Boston, MA at Comcast Center
8/11 Montreal, QC at Heavy Metal Festival Parterre @ Parc Jean Drapeau
8/12 Toronto, ON at Heavy Metal Festival Downsview Park
