Russian deathcore band Slaughter To Prevail‘s summer tour with Falling In Reverse has encountered yet another snag. The group’s frontman Alex Terrible has been met with passport issues affecting him leaving the United States. As such, the group have had to forego their Toronto, ON show that was booked for today, September 10th, and their Montreal, QC stop tomorrow, September 11th. A statement issued by the band earlier today reads:
“Unfortunately, due to visa issues we will no longer be able to play our upcoming Canadian shows supporting Falling in Reverse
We’re all super disappointed and wanted nothing more than to play these shows. However, sometimes problems outside of our control get in the way.
When we were first preparing for tour, Alex had issues with his passport and US visa which prevented him from leaving the US.
After exploring every option and numerous calls with our lawyers, we were able to secure Alex‘s visa but have been left waiting for his passport to be returned.
We were ready to catch the next flights to Canada as soon as the passport was in our hands but the delivery was delayed further.
Sorry to all the Canadian fans who were excited to see us. We’re working hard to make up for these cancellations in the future and already have plans in place! We’ll see you in Spring.
The good news is that moving forward all further shows on this current tour and in Europe/Mexico will be going ahead as planned. It’s been a long and stressful process but we are finally in a place of stability with our travel and touring.”
The start of this run found Slaughter To Prevail temporarily without a drummer, as Evgeny Novikov was met with ‘travel delays’ That situation forced the band to perform with backing tracks.
