ARTILLERY Pulls Out Of KEEP IT TRUE Festival

March 14, 2007

The organizers of the Keep It True VIII festival, which is scheduled to take place April 14 at Tauberfrankenhalle in Lauda-Königshofen, Germany, have issued the following update:

"[Danish thrashers] ARTILLERY had to cancel their show at Keep It True due to problems with the singer and bassist. The Stützer brothers [guitarist Michael and bassist Morten] want to express that they are also disappointed that they couldn't work it out finally. Since there is not much time to book a good new band, we decided to put DESTRUCTOR on the position of ARTILLERY. This will make lots of fans happy that couldn't get a ticket for the Friday show [pre-festival kick-off party]. The band will play a full headlining show on Friday and replace ARTILLERY on the Saturday and play some different songs than on Friday. I hope you all will be satisfied with our decision."

The festival billing is now as follows:
