36 CRAZYFISTS Cancels Remaining Dates On Headlining Tour

October 5, 2010

Alaskan metallers 36 CRAZYFISTS have been forced to cancel the remaining dates on their headlining tour with STRAIGHT LINE STITCH and TAKING DAWN due to "financial" reasons. 36 CRAZYFISTS writes on its Facebook page, "Unfortunate turn of events for the 36 CRAZYFISTS camp. After three weeks of the Stache N Thrash tour, we regret the cancellation of the rest of the shows. After the fourth breakdown of our touring vehicle we have no other choice but to cancel as our financial debt has made it impossible to conitnue on. We apologize to our amazing fans and want to thank everyone who supported the tour. We will see ya next trek out. . . Sorry to disappoint the friends who we didn't get to play for this go around. The Alaska show (Zombiefest on October 30) is still on, of course, as is our tour with DEVILDRIVER in November, Soundwave [festival in] Australia in February, etc."

"Collisions And Castaways", the latest album from 36 CRAZYFISTS, sold around 3,300 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 161 on The Billboard 200 chart. The CD landed at No. 3 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.

"Collisions And Castaways" was written and recorded between October 2009 and May 2010. It follows on the heels of last year's DVD, "Underneath a Northern Sky", and is the band's second straight effort to feature Steve Holt in the producer's chair and Andy Sneap handling the final mix. Additionally, the CD sees the band evolving into a three-piece unit following the 2008 departure of bassist Mick Whitney, who left the group to spend more time at home with his wife and children. Drummer Thomas Noonan rounds out 36 CRAZYFISTS' lineup, with longtime guitar tech Brett "Buzzard" Makowski filling in on bass for the band's upcoming touring plans.
