Those Fightstar boys have been confirmed for the Kerrang! tour that is due to hit the road in the New Year - and they're the only Brits on an American act dominated tour. Also on the bill are Coheed And Cambria, Madina Lake and Circa Survive. Commenting on the tour, that Charlie Simpson told CMU: "I think it's going to be really good fun. I'm a huge fan of Coheed and Madina Lake and I really like Circa Survive's record. Hopefully these shows will open us up to a new audience - and we get to play Brixton Academy too - which is a massive thing for me as I've always wanted to play there - I'm so excited about it!"
