Knocked Loose, Alter Bridge and Down have all booked new tours in the past week.

Knocked Loose are staying out on the road for much of 2026. Their expansive fall tour is hitting several major cities across the U.S.

Bring on the shows.

NOLA denizens of sludge Down have announced a summer run of headlining dates that will see them hitting the road with iconic alt-metal brutalists Helmet and Housecore rockers Spirit in the Room. The trip was announced by the three bands earlier today (May 27th). While Down will be headlining all dates, this is being called the “Strap It Down” tour as a tributary portmanteau between the sludge supergroup and Helmet’s 1990 debut LP, Strap It On. The tour begins August 15th at the Eastern in Atlanta, Georgia, and wraps September 2nd at the Ramova Theatre in Chicago, Illinois. The tour route also includes Down’s appearances at Zakk Wylde’s two Berzerkus Festival dates, while Down splinter off to support Slayer at a Reign in Blood 40th anniversary show Shakopee, Minnesota’s Mystic Lake Amphitheater on September 4th. Pre-sales begin today at noon ET, while the general onsale is this Friday (May 29th) at 10:00 a.m. local time. Down will likewise be offering limited VIP packages that include a soundcheck experience, a meet greet with the band, a photo opportunity, a signed poster, and an exclusive merch item. You can find out more about ticketing here, while the run of dates is down below. As previously reported, Down revealed in a studio update earlier this year that “the new…record is done,” though they haven’t delivered the details on when we’ll hear the album. Their last full length was 2007’s Down III: Over the Under, though they issued a pair of Down IV EPs in 2012 and 2014.
