Grindcore legends NAPALM DEATH have released the following statement:
“Due to illness within his family, we would like to announce that [guitarist] Mitch Harris will, unfortunately, not be performing with us for the near future. We stress that this is not a permanent arrangement, although we are unsure exactly when Mitch will return under the circumstances. Naturally, we sympathize and wish Mitch all the best for now. In the meantime, we will be joined by guitarists who we know can grind it out in his absence. Thanks for your understanding.”
NAPALM DEATH and VOIVOD will join forces for a North American tour, aptly dubbed “Through Space And Grind”, in January/February.
The band will release its 15th album, Apex Predator – Easy Meat in January via Century Media.
