Metallica has announced the support acts for the North American tour later this year, stating the following:
While we are still enjoying our European summer vacation, a quick note here about the Fall shows in North America. Our French friends Gojira will be joining us, along with Lamb of God, for shows September 14 – October 18, while Lars’ brethren from Denmark Volbeat will hanging for the shows October 26 – December 12. One other quick thing – unfortunately Lamb of God cannot continue on with us in December, so we’ll have more news about those shows for you later.
Fans will likely be disappointed that Lamb of God will be joining Metallica for just one month; it’s certainly one hell of a line-up between September 14th and October 18th though, and I’m sure that all that attend those dates will thoroughly enjoy themselves.
