MESHUGGAH Explain Detroit Cancellation

October 19, 2005

Swedish experimental extreme metallers MESHUGGAH have posted the folliowing message on their official web site:

"To all the fans who came to the show in Detroit only to find it cancelled....we sincerely apologize for this. Unfortunately, upon arrival and days prior to the show we found out the promotor of this date was unable to honor the agreed upon contracts for all of the bands on the tour package. We showed up for the show at load in, hoping to work something out but were unable to come to an agreement that would work for all parties involved in the tour. We are a package on this tour and it is either all of us or none of us. In the end all bands agreed it could not be worked out. The rest of the tour will go on as planned and it is very unlikely this will happen at any other of the dates on the tour. In fact, aside from this minor setback, the tour is going great and we look forward to seeing all of you out there!!!"

MESHUGGAH's latest album, "Catch 33", was released in June via Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2002's "Nothing" is being described as one continuous 47-minute song divided into 13 parts and is said to be "musically the opposite" of the group's 2004 EP, "I".
