American metallic hardcore act HATEBREED have been forced to postpone a series of European shows as a result of the Icelandic volcanic ash situation. The band has issued the following statement:
“Due to the massive cloud of volcanic ash drifting over Northern Europe from the eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano in Iceland, authorities ordered the closure of the country’s airspace, forcing our hands to regretfully announce that we have to postpone & reschedule our forthcoming shows.
April 22: Hamburg, Germany at The Docks
April 23: Meerhout, Belgium at Groezrock Festival
April 24: Stuttgart, Germany at LKA
April 25: Wiesbaden, Germany at Schlachthof
We have been in limbo trying to secure alternate inbound travel plans for the band and our crew into Northern Europe to no success. The volcanic ash has wreaked havoc on our efforts. It is beyond our control.
We will do our best to reschedule these dates, asap! We are very sorry to all of our European diehard fans that were anticipating our arrival.”
