VAMPIRES EVERYWHERE! will release their new album, Kiss The Sun Goodbye, on May 17th. The band have been touring alongside crunkcore titans BROKENCYDE on The Death Race Tour, but many fans may have noticed that the band was forced to sit out some recent performance dates due to unspecified reasons.

Fear not, now Michael Vampire has issued a statement regarding their return to the tour: "I am writing to update all of you on my current situation regarding tour and my health. I have been in the hospital for over a week. During the Death Race Tour, I noticed my arm was swollen which progressed throughout the tour. The day of our Atlanta show, I was feeling horrible and asked the band to drive me to the hospital, which I thought was going to be an in and out experience. It turns out my arm was infected badly and needed immediate surgery. Thus VE! had no choice but to cancel tour dates until i was fully recovered. I am being released from the hospital this week and I am feeling much better! We will catch up with the Death Race Tour in Denver at the Marquee Theatre, which I am very excited for! I appreciate all your support during this horrible experience. I will never forget your evil love! See you all on the last leg of The Death Race Tour and our upcoming Horror Nights 2011 tour."
