VIRGIN STEELE have issued the following update:

"Due to difficult circumstances, Virgin Steele has unfortunately been forced to cancel their show in Rio de Janeiro. The reason being the sudden change in arrival time of flights to Rio de Janeiro, thus making it impossible for the band to arrive in town on the scheduled date.

However, the other shows on the 24th and 25th are still on and confirmed. Virgin Steele will be in Curitiba in the Music Hall on the 24th, and in Sao Paulo at the Manifesto Bar on the 25th.

This will be the first ever visit by the band to Brazil and they are planning a set list drawn from the many albums in their extensive catalogue. The group is very sorry about this, and hopes to return again either later this year or early next year."

The band recently announced another change for their upcoming string of shows in South America. The date on June 20th in Argentina is now at Teatro de Flores (Av. Rivadavia 7800, Capital Federal).

Confirmed dates are as follows:

June

20 - Bueno Aires, Argentina - Teatro de Flores (new venue)
24 - Curitiba, Brazil - Master Hall
25 - Sao Paulo, Brazil - Manifesto Bar

July

15 - Vizovice, Czech Republic - Masters Of Rock
16 - Tolmin, Slovenia - Metal Camp

Virgin Steele recently released a video for their track, 'By The Hammer of Zeus (And The Wrecking Ball Of Thor)'.

Says the band: "This is the first official "home" video from the new album, The Black Light Bacchanalia. It again - like the 'God Of Violence Kill' video we just posted - uses only still images. This video was created one day before the 'God Of Violence Kill' video."

Virgin Steele previously released a video for 'God Of Violence Kill', a track featured as a bonus track on the new Noble Savage reissue. Check out the clip below:
