Suicide Silence Cancel Asian Tour Over Coronavirus Outbreak
Suicide Silence are the latest band to cancel a tour of Asia over concerns regarding the coronavirus outbreak. They join Slipknot, Lacuna Coil, and Trivium. A tour featuring Testament, Exodus and Death Angel also skipped a scheduled stop in Milan, Italy, another hotbed for the virus, while this year’s SXSW in Austin, TX has also been called off.
Said Suicide Silence in a statement:
“TOUR UPDATE: As many of you have likely assumed, the travel advisories & postponements of festivals/shows across Asia have forced us to delay our touring in China, Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand & Indonesia. We’ll do our best to reschedule dates in all of these markets surrounding our return to the region with more information coming soon. Stay safe out there everyone!”
