Polish tech-death masters Decapitated have survived an aircraft crash landing, fortunately none of the band members were injured.
The band have cancelled their performance at the Damnation Festival this weekend. Instead, Ulver will play an extended set of 90 minutes (starting at 21:30 instead 22:00). See a clip of the crash HERE.
The band have issued the following statement:
“We are extremely sorry to inform our fans, that due to unforeseen circumstances that are out of our control, we will unfortunately have to cancel our shows in Aalborg (Aalborg Metal Festival) and Leeds (Damnation Festival)”
Festival organiser Gavin McInally commented:
“It’s a major blow to the festival to lose a band like Decapitated, especially with only days to go but I understand entirely why they need time to recover from what must have been a terrifying incident.
“It’s disappointing news for both us and the band but most importantly, no one was seriously injured and hopefully we will be able to host Decapitated in the future.”
