SEPULTURA drummer Igor Cavalera has issued an official statement regarding his decision to sit out the band's upcoming European tour with IN FLAMES, which is scheduled to begin in March. The statement reads as follows:
"There are a lot of comments about me leaving the band, so I thought it would be better to explain to the fans exactly what is going on and why I am not going to Europe.
"The reason why I am not doing the European dates is because I wanna be with my family and specially with my new born son Antonio.
"But at the same time we decided that it would hurt a lot the release of the album not to do any dates, so we agreed to call a step drummer to do those dates.
"I also would like to explain to our fans that I'm not leaving SEPULTURA, it's just that I need this time for me, and I hope the guys have a great tour."
