Street punk mainstays the Casualties and extreme metal mavens  Goatwhore have teamed up for a short string of tour dates. Bringing Havok along for the ride, this lineup is a seriously strong addition of dates to the previously announced sturdy grouping of Goatwhore touring with 3 Inches of Blood, Revocation and Ramming Speed to follow. Goatwhore have been developing a reputation as one of metal’s hardest working bands for over 15 years now. Created by Acid Bath guitarist Sammy Duet and Soilent Green vocalist Ben Falgoust in 1997, it seems like the band has never left the road since their inception, having toured with Lock Up , High on Fire and Hate Eternal , among others in 2012, it’s likely that almost anyone who frequents metal shows has seen Goatwhore in action. The New Orleans group also made our 10 Best Metal Albums of 2012 list with ‘Blood for the Master.’ The Casualties are also well-respected road dogs, having toured all around the world since they began jamming together in 1990. The New York punkers came out with their ninth studio album, ‘Resistance,’ last year, and guitarist Jake Kolatis and bassist Rick Lopez provided us with one of our most memorable video interviews ever.
