January 21, 2012, 12 years ago
BIOHAZARD bassist/vocalist Scott Roberts was rushed to the hospital prior to the kick-off of the band's Persistence Tour 2012 last night (Friday, January 20) in Deinze, Belgium.
A band update reads: "After spending the whole day getting tests done to no avail, he checks himself out of the hospital to make the show just in time to KICK FUCKING ASS and help us blow the roof off of Deinze! That's the crazy vegetarian hardcore dude he is! After the show, he's rushed back to the hospital! Anyone else would had canceled the tour! SCOTT ROCKS! He's sick as a dog and they can't out what it is??? Catscans, MRI's...the whole nine yards, still no word. Send your prayers, he needs them!"
The band added: "Scott is still in the hospital, but judging by his hardcore spirit and having Biohazard blood in his veins, he'll beat this shit! Get ready, Oberhausen!!"
The Persistence Tour 2012 also includes SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, TERROR, WALLS OF JERICHO, LIONHEART and CRUSHING CASPARS.
Biohazard's new album, Reborn In Defiance, was released in Europe yesterday (Friday, January 20) via Nuclear Blast Records. In regards to a release outside Europe the band remarked:
"We regret to inform you all that due to circumstances beyond our control, we will not be able to offer our new record, Reborn In Defiance, in the US at this time. We love all of you who have continued to support us through the years and can't wait to share with you a record that we are extremely proud of. Thank you so much for your understanding and patience and a special thanks to our partners for their hard work setting this up. All of our touring plans are still solidified and we are excited to see you all out on the road!"
