New York hardcore legends MADBALL and manga mosh metallers RISE OF THE NORTHSTAR have announced to be joining forces for a mutual European tour in early 2015!

Commented iconic MADBALL frontman Freddy Cricien:

"Rebellion number 6! Crazy to think that we're going 6 years strong with this brand... obviously we couldn't do it without all our supporters! This year we kept with the theme of some "older school" bands along with some "new blood". That's pretty much what rebellion is about, bringing together the different generations. I look forward to this one and this time we're bringing rebellion to Spain which we've been wanting to do. "

Added RISE OF THE NORTHSTAR:

"ROTNS is honored to be part of this Rebellion Tour alongside NYHC legends MADBALL. We are ready to kill and to demonstrate our Samurai Spirit, Dressed All In Black."

The sixth installment of the annual 'Rebellion Tour' will kick off in Berlin on February 17 and will run through March 1, visiting Germany, France, Spain and Portugal - see dates + poster below.

Both band's have released the heaviest albums in hardcore music 2014 - 'Hardcore Lives' by MADBALL and 'Welcame' by RISE OF THE NORTHSTAR.
