The years of hard living have taken their toll on Eyehategod frontman Mike IX Williams it would seem. The band recently cancelled a planned Australian tour and postponed a Mexican trek. They have addressed that with the following statement:
“We regret to have to cancel both our Australian and Mexican dates until further notice. Vocalist Mike IX Williams‘ mental stability and health are major serious issues at this point, and we are very, very sorry for putting our fans and business partners in this miserable position. We feel horrible about these empty spaces in our schedule and will make up these tours as soon as possible. The cancellation of these tours is in no way any fault of the promoters or foreign booking agents. We hope our fans understand.”
Williams is said to be suffering from chronic fatigue and exhaustion as a result of the bands busy touring schedule. They expect to return to the road in April.
