Killing Joke have cancelled their planned 26-date North American tour.
It was due to get underway next week in Atlanta, but the band have been forced to shelve the trek due to “health issues” within the group.
The band say in a statement: “It is with great sadness and regret that due to some health issues for one of the band, we will not be able to embark on our 2016 US tour.
“This has come as a shock to us all. Please give us the time to work this out and we hope to return to touring as soon as possible.”
Support was to be provided by Soft Moon, and they’ll play some of the dates in place of Killing Joke. Fans are asked to check their website for planned appearances.
Killing Joke have been on the road supporting their latest album, Pylon.
