HIGH ON FIRE Frontman Shares Gory Image Of Partially Amputated Toe
November 5, 2018, 6 years ago
High On Fire announced last week that they will not participate in the 2018 Speed Of The Wizard tour. The band had planned on co-headlining with Municipal Waste, but pulled out when guitarist/vocalist Matt Pike had a medical emergency culminating in the partial amputation of one of his toes.
Matt has since shared this image:
The tour itself will continue on without High on Fire as scheduled.
Municipal Waste provided a statement: "First and foremost we wish our friend Matt the best of luck with his recovery. We need him, the metal world in general needs him. We would much rather have him miss a tour to heal up rather than not having any more Matt Pike music in the future. High On Fire‘s new album is amazing and we love him and his band mates so much. That being said after much discussion us Toxic and Haunt are still going to do the tour. It just makes sense, why make something negative worse? Get better Matt we love you.”
