Norwegian black metallers MAYHEM have canceled their previously announced North American 40th-anniversary tour “due to a member of the band having a medical emergency that requires immediate surgery.” According to the group, the procedure “will result in a prolonged recovery period.”
The North American dates were scheduled to kick off on November 12 in Montreal, with stops in Toronto; Queens, New York; Chicago; and Los Angeles before and wrapping up November 23 in Denver.
Tickets will be refunded at point of purchase.
MAYHEM states: “Fret not, American and Canadian legion, as MAYHEM will have something coming up next year that will make this up to those of you who have been disappointed by this news.”
