Whilst the preliminary announcement introduced little clarification, DEATH ANGEL drummer Will Carroll just lately shed some gentle at the state of affairs in a since-deleted Fb publish. Even if the entire main points stay undisclosed, Carroll‘s message hinted at vital problems that compelled the band to tug out.

“Now that the excursion’s been cancelled I’ve a host of time freed up for the rest of the 12 months,” he persisted. “As a substitute of falling deeper into melancholy (which in point of fact doesn’t go well with me) I plan on staying busy with the drumming. [DEATH ANGEL guitarist] Rob Cavestany and I are proceeding paintings at the new song. NOBODY can put the kibosh on that. However along with that I’d like to place the phrase out that I’m keen on running on different initiatives. I like recording and I’m lovely environment friendly at it. Gigs and traveling are chances as neatly. So when you’re keen on running in combination hit me up on DM or when you have my quantity then touch me at once.”

Whilst Carroll hasn’t explicitly said the explanation at the back of the band’s abrupt departure from the W.A.S.P. excursion, in style hypothesis issues to a scheduling battle with frontman Mark Osegueda‘s commitments to Kerry King‘s new band.
