Sounds of the Underground
The Sounds of the Underground tour is a festival-like tour that rivaled Ozzfest in its first year of existence (2005).
The tour features extreme metal and metalcore, and hardcore bands. The existence of this tour, which was held in national arenas, was to attract the rising interest of metal, hardcore, and metalcore bands in the mainstream.
