The tour may start February 20 in Minneapolis, but the band’s reps have not confirmed that date with Pollstar. However, all the stops from February 24 in Grand Rapids, Mich., to April 2 in Orlando, Fla., look good to go.

This is the first leg of what will likely be a considerably longer tour and the band expects to announce more dates soon.

Soulfly will open on all dates and other artists are expected to sign on soon.

Pantera will be out in support of their latest metal offering, Reinventing The Steel. It’s the band’s first record in three years since the live album Official Live: 101 Proof and the first studio album in four years since The Great Southern Trendkill was released.

Anselmo and his bandmates have cultivated a devoted following on the strength of their live show and six albums that have received very little radio or MTV play.

They’ve been through several rock incarnations as they played with different musical styles in the early stages of their careers, and all four band members have various side projects when they’re not ripping up the road as Pantera.
