BEHEMOTH: FORCED TO CANCEL ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL APPEARANCE

BEHEMOTH unleashed "Evangelion" 8/11/2009 via NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS.


FROM BEHEMOTH:
Drummer Inferno undergoes surgery and unable to perform while he recovers

Poland’s blackened death metal outfit BEHEMOTH have been forced to cancel their upcoming appearance on theRockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival due to their drummer Inferno taking ill and requiring surgery.

The band’s front-man Nergal comments; "This must have been the most difficult decision we were forced to make in recent years. Behemoth is known for not canceling any shows or tours. But this is not something we can do whenwe are missing our driving force, the man behind the drums - Inferno. Unfortunately, he was hospitalized due to appendix surgery and it's gonna take him few months to fully recover and get back to shape. We are trying to save selected European Festivals with a fill in drummer (Krimh,ex-Decapitated), but we won't be risking doing a full-on prestigious tour like the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival without Inferno. Behemoth is a solid unit and any part of this unit missing makes us weaker, and that is not how we want to present our new material to our fans. Please, accept our apologies and be patient, we shall return to Europe (this fall) and US (early 2014) empowered and motivated as never before!"

The Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival is set to kick off on Saturday, June 29 in San Bernardino, CA and features bands such as Rob Zombie, Five Finger Death Punch, Mastodon, label mates Amon Amarth, Machine Head, label mates Job For a Cowboy and Battlecross, Children of Bodom, and many more. For tickets, dates, contests, and more, head to the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival Official Site and follow the tour onFacebook and Twitter.

BEHEMOTH’s recently announced forthcoming full-length album, The Satanist, is scheduled for a fall 2013 release. For further updates please visit the band’s Facebook page
