The band’s guitarist fractures his wrist

H.I.M have been forced to reschedule their UK and Irish tour after the band’s guitarist fractured his wrist.

The group were due to kick off the dates at the Dublin Ambassador on January 16 but band member Linde will now have to wear a cast until the end of the month. The jaunt has been rearranged for April.

Tickets for the original shows will be valid for the rescheduled dates and all subsequent shows in Europe, Japan, Australia and New Zealand are set to go ahead as originally planned.

H.I.M will now play:

Manchester Apollo (April 18-19)
Birmingham Academy (20-21)
Glasgow Academy (23)
Newcastle Academy (24)
London Brixton Academy (25)
Dublin Ambassador (27-28)


The next single to be taken from H.I.M's fifth studio album 'Dark Light' will be 'Killing Loneliness', which is due to hit the shops on January 23.
