DRUNKEN BASTARDS founder diagnosed with cancer


A statement from Hungarian metalpunks DRÜNKEN BASTARDS reads: "Pete Fire, the founding guitarist of Drünken Bastards, has been diagnosed with cancer a couple of weeks ago. The treatments have started already and the doctors, family and his friends are confident that he's going to get better. So far, he has been taking it good, but the whole treatment could take up to six months. This means that the band had to cancel all the shows which were booked for autumn. Of course, we won't stop working and together we decided to write our third upcoming album and to make up for all the canceled shows in spring after Pete gets better. Hope for him to get better and meanwhile wait for the second album, Horns Of The Wasted, which will be release on Hells Headbangers on August 31st. Of course Pete's other band Bridge To Solace has also decided to cancel their last shows and wait for Pete to get better, hence the next spring won't go easy on nuclear hardcore and metal/punk attacks."
