With apologies to our followers who had purchased tickets and had been wanting ahead to seeing us supporting DIS on their US tour DIS have determined to kick us off the tour; purely on the idea our final album being launched by Prosthetic Data, who they don’t like.
Our album Disgrace was launched by Prosthetic in February 2024 which DIS’s supervisor can not have been unaware of when he instantly supplied the tour to us (bypassing our reserving agent). We then proceeded to substantiate the tour, ship via promo belongings to DIS’s staff and subsequently be introduced on the tour over a month in the past.
We can not fathom why now out of the blue they’ve found we had been on a label they don’t wish to be related to. A label they’re conscious we’re not even on anymore. This simply exhibits very poor professionalism, lax requirements and an lack of ability to carry out even minuscule due diligence on the elements of DIS, and their staff at Tone Administration.
This has clearly had a ripple impact on our funds and we’d like all the assistance we are able to get with funding our European tour. In the event you’d nonetheless prefer to assist please checkout our Hey Merch retailer
We sit up for seeing you all in Europe. Presently, there aren’t any plans to tour within the US for the foreseeable future.
