Maul's van engine locks up while on tour with Deterioration, seeking help via GoFundMe
Fargo, ND-based death metal outfit Maul has recently hit some trouble while out on their North American tour alongside Deterioration. Recently the band's van engine locked up and seized forcing Maul to rent transportation to continue the tour's remaining dates.
Repairs to the engine, towing costs, and the new rental all will cost around $7,000 and the band has set up a GoFundMe to help alleviate some of the costs.
The band's GoFundMe says:
We're MAUL and our engine locked up while on tour and we're looking at a ton of fees between a rental, towing and shop repairs.
Anything helps! Here's the rest of our tour dates.

7/2 Rochester, NY

Post CommentIf I donate to this gofund me would they be willing to drive 15 minutes to f*ck ugly women? you must f*ck ugly women, this is not a dating site
That's on them for trying to drive hundreds of miles at a time in a f*cking short bus.
Good. Did they help me get a new battery when my minivan with kids inside wouldn't start? Golden rule. They don't help me, I don't help them.
eat shit. f these new-jack commies. If you can't maintain your machines, stay home.
This is just poor planning and lack of contingencies. When I toured in a band we made sure to do regular maintenence on the van conducive to long trips. Prior to the tour, We also would have it deliberately taken in, and informed our mechanic we would be putting thousands of miles on it and want proactive maintenence done to make sure it could handle it. We also made sure that each band member brought at least 500 and a credit card with in case we had any mechanical emergencies. Also- the most common reason an engine seizes up is cause you didn't f*cking change the oil. These guys are expecting everyone else to be responsible for their shitty planning. f*ck them. ^this dude knows whaddup. I'll just assume Maul is a band full of 16 year olds who just got a license so I can avoid calling them f*cking retards
Maybe there is a God. He can strike down 200 Stab Wounds next
Dudes! Bands today can't afford all their retro death metal tees of tours that happened before they got pubes AND get an oil change
These type of vans and mini busses are notoriously awful to tour in. Get an e-350 and maintain it. Bring a spare tire, buy a used alternator on eBay to bring, get AAA, etc
$20 oil change and tire pressure check could of saved these losers. Here's an idea; move outta your parents spare room and get a job! LOL
Good. Did they help me get a new battery when my minivan with kids inside wouldn't start? Golden rule. They don't help me, I don't help them. ^^^ lol. At admitting you have kids and drive a minivan. You plain bitch.
They can finger each other's assholes and check each other's oil, but not the vans.
Learn about changing your oil scumbags. 7 grand is the cost of the used engine they wanna use someone else's money to purchase. They don't give a rip about the very thing that makes them a living so you should immediately wonder how much they care for ANYTHING else in their lives? How deeply insulting. They don't know their asshole from their elbow but they know they need 7 grand from strangers for something they discarded? Be vigilant of clowns like this
