Following on from the deafening and monstrously successful first instalment of Metal Hammer and Classic Rock’s own Lords Of The Riff tour, which took place earlier this year and starred Scorpion Child, Monster Truck and Buffalo Summer, the time has come for it to happen all over again. This autumn, venues around the UK will resound to the life-affirming sound of some of the heaviest riffs currently available to human ears, courtesy of three of the hottest new bands on the planet.

Thunderous redneck rockers ANTI-MORTEM , epic stoner riff-wielders KYNG and organ-hammering groove-masters LIONIZE will feature on a rotating line-up so heavy that we can already feel the ground rumbling!

Lords Of The Riff Vol. 2 will hit the road in November for eleven skull-shattering dates that promise to be one of the hottest tickets in the heavy music world this autumn.

“We’re really excited to tour Europe with Lionize and Kyng,” says Nevada Romo of Anti-Mortem. “Both are visionary bands for this time. We have heard amazing things about Europe and it’s reception for this type of rock in roll. We’re really looking forward to seeing how the fans receive us.”
