According to a statement made on Polish extremists HATE's official Twitter page, the band will be forced to miss the first date of their North American tour. The show in question is set for tomorrow night at Jaxx in Springfield, VA.

Aside from Hate's absence the show is expected to go on as planned. Hate will join the tour on March 10th in Trenton, NJ.

In support of their latest masterpiece, Erebos, Hate are set to take North America by storm with the massive tour.

For the first leg of the tour, Hate will team up with ROTTING CHRIST, MELECHESH, ABIGAIL WILLIAMS and LECHEROUS NOCTURE for 30 shows.

For the second tour, which begins on April 18th, Hate will support SEPULTURA, BELPHEGOR and, on select shows NEVERMORE, during a 38-show run covering the US and Canada.

The band has also been confirmed to play some extra concerts between the mentioned tours. The Hate North America invasion will contain altogether 76 shows in the period of three months.

Band leader ATF Sinner comments: "We've been looking for such an opportunity for years. It's going to be the biggest and most presigious tour we've taken part in, and we just can't wait to be there to spew Erebos songs on the crowds! I know such a long tour is a challenge, but I'm sure we're well prepare for it. It's gonna be our second tour in North America after last year's raid with Hypocrisy which was a great experience for us."
