Black metal legends Satyricon have announced they have had to cancel their festival appearances at Knotfest and and Horrorfest.
The band released the statement below:
“Dear U.S fans,”
“We regret to inform that Satyricon will not perform at Knotfest in San Bernardino, CA and Horror Fest in Austin, TX in October 2014.”
“The reasons for not being able to perform at these two festivals are both pragmatic ones and entirely different from each other. Satyricon will now shift its attention towards the writing of a new album, re-editing the footage from the ‘Live at the Opera’ live album/DVD and another project that will be announced at a later stage.”
“It is important for the band that the U.S fans understand that you are far from forgotten and that the band look forward to come over for a full scale U.S tour as soon as it is possible. You deserve it.”
The band are very light on details as to why they have cancelled their shows, likely it would be to some visa issues as so many foreign bands experience when touring the US nowadays. Well we’re sure Satyricon will make it up in one way or another to US fans, as it sounds like they intend to return for a full-fleged tour at some point in the future.
