Hate bassist dies on tour

Forthcoming dates cancelled (understandably). Terrible, terrible news and our sympathies go out to Slawek “Mortifer” Archangielskij’s family, friends and band-mates.

The statement from the band is as follows:

“At night 5th/6th April near a German town of Munchberg, our friend, best comrade and longtime bass player unexpectedly passed away. After the show in Stuttgart last night he went to sleep and never woke up. We found him lifeless early in the morning and immediately called an ambulance. He was reanimated, but to no avail. Results of Slawek’s autopsy should be known soon.

“In this situation, we decided to cancel the remaining shows and return home. We gave detailed testimonies to the German police. We are shocked and shattered by his sudden, unexpected death. We mourn together with Slawek’s family and friends.”
