Watain to miss first 4 shows of U.S. tour

Swedish black metal band Watain will miss the first four shows of the Decibel Magazine Tour with Behemoth, The Devil's Blood, and In Solitude due to delays in the visa process. Watain will join the tour on April 16th in Lawrence, KS. Watain's Erik Danielsson comments: "It's not the first time the law stands in our way trying to prevent us from doing our work, and just like all the previous times it will lay broken and humiliated eventually. We are content we will be victorious, meanwhile we ask all our U.S. supporters to have patience and prepare themselves for the coming of Watain!"

It will be so worth the wait to see Watain. The closest to Dissection one can get these days. http://www.youtube.com/wat ch?v=hetxbv0w10o&hd=1
