SOIL's Tour Bus Involved In Road Accident

April 13, 2015

SOIL's tour bus was involved in a road accident last night following the band's concert in Des Moines, Iowa. SOIL singer Ryan McCombs writes on Instagram: "At 4:33 a.m., the last thing you want to hear in your bunk is a combination of the driver yelling, 'HOLD ON!!', the sound of the bus flying off of the highway and The Jake (tour manager) screaming like a 12-year-old girl at a Justin Beiber concert.

"I find it interesting that as everyone sits around the stranded bus talking about what was going through their heads, all I can remember is gripping my pillow like it was going to save me from whatever was about to occur and thinking, '....huh....'"

He adds: "No serious injuries.. Just a bus full of arseholes that for the most part are happy to be alive and now just making fun of each other for their responses. We really are a bunch of fu*kwads..."

McCombs suffered a stroke in November following the completion of SOIL's European tour with (HED)P.E. and AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE.

SOIL's sixth studio album, "Whole", was released on August 20, 2013 via Pavement Entertainment.

"Whole" is the first SOIL album with McCombs since 2004's "Re.De.Fine" (after which he joined DROWNING POOL). It sees SOIL returning to its classic sound that fans have come to admire, with a pres release calling it the CD "that could have come directly after the 'Scars' album in 2001."

At 4:33 AM the last thing you want to hear in your bunk is a combination of the driver yelling "HOLD ON!!", the sound of the bus flying off of the highway and The Jake (tour manager) screaming like a 12 year old girl at a Justin Beiber concert.. I find it interesting that as everyone sits around the stranded bus talking about what was going through their heads all I can remember is gripping my pillow like it was going to save me from whatever was about to occur and thinking "....huh...." No serious injuries.. Just a bus full of arseholes that for the most part are happy to be alive and now just making fun of each other for their responses.. We really are a bunch of fu*kwads... #soil_official #soil #saladtongs #ryanmccombs37 #cornbeefhashtag #ryanmccombs
