Emmure and Whitechapel are set to head out on a 2013 North American tour completely filled with all things ‘core.’ The two co-headlining bands will be joined on the road by Unearth , Obey the Brave and the Plot in You beginning in early January. The ‘Brothers of Brutality’ tour will be presented by Revolver Magazine and Rockstar Energy Drink and will begin on Jan. 8, wrapping up on Feb. 11. Whitechapel guitarist Alex Wade shared his excitement for the upcoming tour in a recent press release. “We are really excited to announce our co-headlining tour with Emmure,” says Wade. “We have been friends with them for quite some time now, and this is something we have always talked about doing, so it’s awesome to see it finally come to light. Our first show ever was with Emmure in Nashville, TN before either of us were signed, so it’s incredible to see how we have both grown so much in the music industry and are able to come together and put together this co-headlining tour!” Whitechapel are currently riding high from their 2012 self-titled album, with Emmure still buzzing after the release of ‘Slave to the Game,’ which also dropped this year.
