Acaro Tour With Killswitch Engage Kicks Off This Week, New disc streaming online

Massachusetts metallers Acaro will kick off their tour with Killswitch Engage and Shadows Fall as part of the KsE Tenth Anniversary "Alive or Just Breathing" Tour on Saturday, November 24th at the NOS Event Center.

Acaro will fill the opening slot for one of 2012's most anticipated tours that will see a Jesse Leach-fronted Killswitch Engage performing their classic Alive or Just Breathing in its entirety. Few bands have what it takes to rise to such an occasion, but Acaro's aggressive brand of melodic and modern thrash will undoubtedly fire up audiences as the band bulldozes a path across the nation.

HailsAndHorns.com has posted a full album stream of Acaro's debut, The Disease of Fear for fans to check out before witnessing the band's face-melting live performance. Check it out at: www.hailsandhorns.com/featured/featured-stream-acaro-the-disease-of-fear

They are ACARO and they are metal. They are 5 hard working individuals, who bring 5 different backgrounds to create 1 unique musical experience. They always give their audience more than they expect, and they will never be satisfied with their abilities.

ACARO's first show was in October 2008 at Ralph's Diner in Worcester, MA. They have been honored to play the New England Metal and Hardcore Fest in 2009 and 2010, the NEMHCF's SXSW stage in 2010, and have shared the stage with Unearth, In Flames, Gojira, As I Lay Dying, Lamb of God, Amon Amarth, Cannibal Corpse, Behemoth, Winds of Plague, Suffocation, Acacia Strain, and many other national and regional touring bands.

Their goals are simple, to continue writing, recording, and performing at the highest level of their abilities, in as many places around the world as possible. The release of their first album The Disease of Fear, and the completion of the video for, "Becoming the Process", will help to achieve those goals.

By bringing the old into the 21st Century, and keeping the new grounded to its roots, ACARO achieves the Brutal/Melodic blend that can stir emotions and hit you over the head with a sledge-hammer at the same time. These individuals are brought together by the love of Metal, the drive to create, the desire to succeed, and the need to bring ACARO's music and energy to as many people, in as many places as possible.

Nothing comes without hard work and no one will work harder. ACARO is not just a band, it is a way of life for all involved and all it touches. They are ACARO and they believe. Soon, so will you.
