    Hip-hop and heavy metal meet cartoons


    Cartoon Network's ever-popular programming block Adult Swim recently announced two nationwide music tours starting this October. Each tour will hit 12 college campuses with a free concert open to the public. The first, hip-hop themed tour kicks off October 1 at the State University of New York campus in Albany and will feature Ghostface Killah and Witchdoctor.

    Though the dates of the following heavy metal tour haven’t been released, Adult Swim revealed that it is set to start October 29 and will feature ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead and a live version of Dethklok, the heavy metal band from Adult Swim's animated television series Metalocalypse.
