AMEN have postponed their forthcoming UK tour after singer CASEY CHAOS was rushed to hospital.

The band were due to come over from LA for shows next month, but have now postponed the dates after Chaos was operated on after being diagnosed with “internal bleeding due to multiple ruptured hernias”.

A statement issued to NME.COM reads: “Casey is still in hospital, but should be discharged tomorrow. He is under doctor’s orders not to move a muscle for at least 8 weeks. However, the band are hoping that they will be able to honour dates in Europe in June, and then reschedule the UK dates.

”All tickets bought will be valid for the new shows when they are announced. The band would like to apologise to their fans for this first time ever, cancellation of shows.”
