Former Alexisonfire guitarist/vocalist Wade MacNeil has been confirmed as Gallows’ new frontman.
“After [Gallows] decided they were going to keep going, my name kind of popped up, and they all thought it made sense,” MacNeil told Altpress.com. “It didn’t overcomplicate itself. I talked to Steph [Carter, guitarist], and I said I was definitely interested. He pretty much said, ‘Okay, let’s do it,’ and I got on a plane and we’re writing right now.”
Four Year Strong, Gallows, Title Fight, The Swellers, and Sharks will team up for the AP Tour Fall 2011. Dates follow:
Gallows have been confirmed to support Rage Against The Machine at Gelredome in Arnhem, Holland on June 9th.

Gallows have cancelled their April European tour to focus on writing new material. The band issued the following statement:
“We’re afraid we’re going to be unable to head out to Europe as previously planned in April. We’re going to be taking some time out to spend a few months writing some new material. We’re really sorry to disappoint any fans who were looking forward to seeing us but we’ll be back soon.”
