Last October Skeletonwitch vocalist Chance Garnette had to leave the band mid-tour because he had, “some serious personal matters to attend to.” Now, with a European tour set to start in just two days the band has announced that Chance won’t be making the trip, and that Andy Horn will be handling vocal duties.

From the Skeletonwitch Facebook page:

“Hails to Andy Horn! This metal maniac will be handling vocal duties on our upcoming Euro tour. We go way back with this guy. He got nuts with Cannabis Corpse and gets nuts with Battlemaster. Come see him get nuts with us!”

Garnette, who has been with the band since they formed in 2003 (along with his brother, guitarist Nate), is no longer listed in the Band Members section of their official Facebook page, but neither is Horn’s, which means this might not be a permanent line-up change.
