New Zealand death metal stars Ulcerate have been robbed during their first US tour. The band published the following update on their facebook page:
“We had our van broken into in New York last night at our accom. We’ve lost all our guitar gear (preamps, effects units), some drum equipment, stage banner and all of Svart Crown’s merch was also ripped off. We’re going to keep going but this is a fucking terrible start. We had phenomenal shows in Philadelphia and NYC last night so this is an absolute kick in the fucking teeth.”
Some fans started to try to help the guys by giving donations, so the Ulcerate manager commented:
“The guys are not that comfortable with taking money, but if you want to help – ulcerate[at]gmail[dot]com store pay pal. THANK YOU.”
