Drummer Chris Adler is set to be a very busy man as Megadeth and Lamb Of God have announced a co-headline tour of the UK and Ireland.

I literally can’t wait to hit the stage again.”

Megadeth’s new album is expected to be released later this year, whilst Lamb Of God’s new LP, VII: Sturm Und Drang, is released on the 24th of July.
