After voyaging to Portugal last week, the 70,000 Tons of Metal tanker returns to American shores to welcome Tampa-based Obituary aboard. Now there are 13 bands confirmed for the cruise, which sets sail from Miami to Cozumel, Mexico, and heads back to Miami, Jan. 24-28, 2011. The self-proclaimed "heaviest band in the world" will mesh well with Amon Amarth, Epica, Finntroll, Moonspell Raven, Saxon,
Sodom, Sonata Arctica, Stratovarius, Trouble, Uli Jon Roth, and
Witchburner.
