Massachusett’s Own Acaro Added To Killswtich Engage Tour

Massachusetts face-melters ACARO have been added to the Killswitch Engage

Tenth Anniversary “Alive or Just Breathing” Tour with Shadows Fall. 

The band 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. 

ACARO is touring in support of their debut, The Disease of Fear, which was 

released on October 2nd through Goomba Music. A video for the track 

“Becoming the Process” has been posted at this location

up

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.
