Panzerfaust is currently out on the road with Belphegor and Cryptopsy, though things aren't going so well. The band was driving through the Northern Pass from Vancouver to Edmonton in Canada when they hit a patch of black ice and flipped their van into a creek off the highway. Panzerfaust says its members are doing well, but most of their gear and merchandise have been completely destroyed and insurance covers none of it.
Panzerfaust adds that it will not participate in the show in Regina on November 30, but does not plan on dropping off the tour. Here's what the band had to say about the whole ordeal, complete with photos and a PayPal email if you'd like to donate to 'em ([email protected]).
Today we narrowly avoided a swift visit from the angel of death. While driving through the Northern pass from Vancouver to Edmonton we hit black ice – spiralling us into the frozen creek below. Despite being pinned beneath the crushed vehicle, submerged in the frigid water, we managed to crawl from the wreckage; all of us relatively unscathed. Be that as it may, much of our gear and merchandise has been destroyed, and we have been informed that insurance will cover none of it.
Needless to say, our performance in Regina will have to be cancelled. We have every intention of finishing the tour, however, some tremendous financial burdens stand in our way. We humbly ask anyone that can assist us financially in any way to help us see this campaign through. Anything helps, and we would be indebted to you. One way or another, Panzerfaust has every intention of spearheading forward, as our dignity demands it of us.

May death tremble to take us,
