FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH Cancels Gothenburg Concert

November 19, 2009

Los Angeles metallers FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH have issued the following update:

"Unfortunately, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH will not be performing tonight, November 19 in Gothenburg [Sweden]. Zoltan [Bathory, guitar] has been violently ill all day with nausea and vertigo. Due to his condition, he was unable to travel last night.

"We apologize to all our amazing Swedish fans, and we hope to be back next year to make it up to you. He is just now starting to feel better, so we plan on traveling to Copenhagen and playing tomorrow night at The Rock.

"SHADOWS FALL will perform as scheduled."

FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH performed last night (Wednesday, November 18) at John Dee in Oslo, Norway as a four-piece as a result of Zoltan's illness.

"Dying Breed", the opening track to FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH's latest album, "War Is The Answer", has just been released as a digital single. It also features "Succubus", a bonus track previously unreleased and taken from the sessions for "The Way Of The Fist", the band’s debut album. A demo version of the song found its way online a few years ago and, due to popular demand, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH recently remixed and remastered it.

Video footage of FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH's November 16, 2009 performance in Helsinki, Finland can be viewed below.
