Shinedown will head up the 2012 Avalanche tour with support from up-and-comers Adelitas Way and Art of Dying -- get all the details here.

The Avalanche tour returns for it's second outing with Shinedown headlining the annual touring festival -- last year's featured Stone Sour, Theory of a Deadman, Skillet, and Halestorm. Art of Dying appeared as part of last year's lineup and will once again be involved, as they will replace New Medicine as support for the second half the tour (all dates from April 12th on). Tickets for the Avalanche Tour 2012 go on sale this Friday (2/3) at 10a ET.
