Suffokate says "f*ck you" to absent singer

Remember earlier this month when Matthew Krawchuk, vocalist for Oakland, Ca deathcore band Suffokate, went "missing" for a day or so? Although he did eventually turn up, details regarding his temporary disappearance were never revealed, and the whole thing seemed really strange. Well, the drama continues as Krawchuk never turned up for the band's weekend show in Las Vegas, NV, and drummer Lars Diaz posted the video message below [Diaz posted the video on Facebook, but we put it elsewhere for fear that it would be deleted]. According to Diaz, Krawchuk is apparently claiming that he was deported to Canada, thus explaining his absence. We'll see what happens, but Krawchuk joined the band less than a year ago, and it seems as if he's already worn out his welcome.

it would be cool to actually meet some of you gays and physically fight you. Though thats impossible unfortunately. Oh sorry, this time i took the CAPS off. You gays with your rebuttal are probably ALL in God awful bands who are just.defending other God awful bands. But hey, thats cool, you "30 year olds emotionally going onto 16yr olds go on having eachothers backs.

You have to be pretty fcking gay to not even show up for a spot in the band that is the easiest to play. What a gay. All of their singers besides Jarred were gays. Im fact, fck this band. On A Warpath was better.
