Yesterday, the promoters of Worcester, MA's annual Rock & Shock festival announced their initial lineup of horror convention attractions and metal bands for the annual fright fest. What was most exciting about the announcement was the reveal of a new national tour which will happen this fall.

We can confirm, as the flyer gives away, that Machine Head, Children of Bodom, Epica and Battlecross will be heading out for the first ever Revolution Society tour this fall.

The tour, promoted by the same people behind the Metal Alliance Tour in the spring, have an official website and Facebook page, but with no info on it just yet. The keen folks at Metal Insider have tracked down another date, 10/21 at Milwaukee's The Rave but no other dates are announced at this time.

Machine Head will presumably be on the road promoting their new album. I'm assuming Bodom will be out supporting their 2013 release Halo of Blood.
