UK-based hardcore punk legends Discharge have been forced to cancel their US headlining tour, which was scheduled to kick-off tomorrow at the Maryland Deathfest in Baltimore.

“Due to circumstances beyond our control, our visas have been delayed and we are forced to postpone the immediately forthcoming tour dates in North America," states the band. "FEAR NOT, however, as we are working diligently to reschedule these shows as QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, and we WILL fulfill all shows.  All tickets will be honored.  Please stand by as we will announce new performance dates in the next few days!”

Nuclear Blast Records released the new Discharge album, End Of Days, on May 13th in North America. In this new trailer video, Mark Osegueda and Rob Cavestany from Death Angel wax lyrical about the band and how they influenced them musically.

Formed in 1977 by Terry "Tezz" Roberts, his twin brother Tony "Bones" Roberts and Royston “Rainy” Wainwright, Discharge are cited as a key influence by renowned artists such as Metallica and Anthrax.
